BUSSMANN GMA-250-R Fast Acting Fuse, 0.25 A, 250 VAC, Pack of 5

Bussmann GMA-250-R fast-acting fuse protects electronic devices and automotive systems from overcurrent situations. It responds quickly to overcurrent conditions by breaking the circuit, preventing damage to components or equipment.

Working Mechanism:

• The fuse is connected to a circuit and monitors the flow of electric current.
• The fuse detects when the current abruptly increases, as in a power surge or short circuit.
• The high current heats up a small wire inside the fuse.
• When the wire becomes sufficiently hot due to the high current, it melts and breaks apart.
• The circuit is disrupted by the broken wire. This breakage prevents the excessive current from continuing to flow, safeguarding the connected devices from harm.

Features:

• Bussmann GMA-250-R fuse has a glass body for visual status indication.
• It has silver-plated end caps for connection to various electrical circuits.
• This fast-acting fuse has a current rating of 250mA.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q. What is the interrupt rating of this fuse?

A.

• 35A at 250VAC
• 10kA at 125VAC

Q. What is the response time of this Bussmann GMA-250-R fuse?

A.

• 60 minutes at 135 percent of the rated capacity
• 2 minutes at 200 percent of the rated capacity

Q. How does a fast-acting fuse differ from a slow-blow fuse?

A. A fast-acting fuse reacts quickly to overcurrent conditions, while a slow-blow fuse has a delayed response to allow for short-duration overcurrents. Fast-acting fuses are used in applications where quick protection is crucial.
