Bulk PTC Thermistors from Advance Electrical Co. — In-Stock Protection for Industrial and OEM Circuits

When you’re designing systems that need current control, over-temperature protection, or self-regulating heating, you need more than just parts — you need precision, availability, and reliability.

That’s exactly what Advance Electrical Co. delivers with our high-volume stock of PTC thermistors. We’re a trusted B2B supplier for OEMs, industrial engineers, and electrical equipment manufacturers who require dependable protection components — fast.

What Is a PTC Thermistor?

A PTC thermistor (Positive Temperature Coefficient) is a temperature-sensitive resistor whose resistance increases as it heats up.

This makes it perfect for:

  • Limiting inrush current
  • Protecting circuits from over-temperature
  • Controlling self-heating elements
  • Resettable fuse functions

Unlike traditional fuses or relays, PTC thermistors reset themselves automatically once the temperature stabilizes — reducing manual servicing and improving uptime.

💡 Advance Electrical Co. Pro Tip: Use PTCs in your circuit as low-maintenance protection against surge and overheating failures.

⚙️ Applications for Industrial and OEM Use

Our customers at Advance Electrical Co. use PTC thermistors in hundreds of real-world B2B settings:
