Overview

The Mersen A3T3 (SKU: A3T3) is a Class T fast-acting fuse designed for high current limitation in compact installations. Rated at 3 Amps, this fuse operates at 300VAC and 160VDC with an interrupting rating of 200kA RMS AC and 50kA RMS DC. Its glass melamine body ensures superior dimensional stability, while blade-stamped catalog numbers provide permanent identification. The unique dimensions prevent substitution with lower-rated fuses, ensuring system integrity. With a current-limiting capability that reduces peak let-thru current, the A3T3 minimizes stress on downstream components during fault conditions. This fuse is ideal for space-constrained applications in loadcenters, panelboards, switchboards, circuit breakers, and metering centers. Part of Mersen's Amp-Trap® Class T series, the A3T3 delivers reliable overcurrent and short-circuit protection in industrial and commercial electrical systems.
