Frequently Asked Questions
What does the aM characteristic mean for this fuse?
The aM characteristic indicates that the fuse is motor-rated, designed to protect motor circuits by tolerating the high inrush current during motor startup while providing reliable short-circuit protection.
Can this fuse be used in DC circuits?
No, this fuse is rated for AC applications only, specifically up to 500VAC as per IEC standards.
What is the significance of the 120 kA breaking capacity?
The 120 kA breaking capacity means the fuse can safely interrupt fault currents up to 120,000 amperes without damage, ensuring protection in high short-circuit current environments.
Is the fuse body material important?
Yes, the ceramic body provides excellent insulation and thermal resistance, improving safety and durability under fault conditions.
