Provides supplemental overcurrent protection for electrical circuits requiring a 1.6 A time-delay fuse rating. The 1-6/10 designation represents one and six-tenths amperes.
Designed for compatible AC control circuits and industrial electrical equipment operating within the published 250 VAC maximum rating.
Helps accommodate temporary inrush currents associated with control power transformers, motors and other inductive loads according to the published time-current characteristics.
Features a nominal 10.3 x 38.1 mm cylindrical body designed for installation in dimensionally compatible and appropriately rated fuse holders.
Provides a 100 A interrupting rating at 250 VAC and a 10 kA interrupting rating at 125 VAC. The selected rating must be suitable for the available fault current at the actual circuit voltage.
Combines time-delay operation, melamine tube construction and nickel-plated ferrule end caps for supplemental protection of suitable AC inductive circuits.

What is the Bussmann FNM-1-6/10?
It is a 1.6 A time-delay midget fuse from the Eaton Bussmann FNM series, designed for supplemental overcurrent protection of compatible electrical circuits.
Who manufactures FNM-1-6/10?
FNM-1-6/10 is an Eaton Bussmann series product. Its manufacturer catalog number is FNM-1-6/10.
What does the 1-6/10 designation mean?
It identifies a current rating of 1.6 amperes, equivalent to 1600 mA or one and six-tenths amperes.
What is the AC voltage rating?
The manufacturer specifies a maximum voltage rating of 250 VAC.
Is FNM-1-6/10 a fast-acting fuse?
No. It is a dual-element time-delay fuse intended to accommodate certain temporary inrush currents according to its published operating characteristics.
What is the interrupting rating at 250 VAC?
The published interrupting rating is 100 A at 250 VAC.
What is the interrupting rating at 125 VAC?
The published interrupting rating is 10,000 A at 125 VAC. This higher rating must not be applied to circuits operating at 250 VAC.
What are the physical dimensions?
The nominal midget cartridge dimensions are 10.3 mm in diameter and 38.1 mm in length, equivalent to 13/32 x 1-1/2 inches.
Does FNM-1-6/10 have a blown-fuse indicator?
No. The standard FNM-1-6/10 is a non-indicating fuse.
What materials are used in this fuse?
The Eaton Bussmann FNM series specifies melamine tube construction, while the manufacturer identifies nickel-plated bronze end caps for FNM-1-6/10.
Can FNM-1-6/10 be used for branch-circuit protection?
The FNM series is intended for supplemental overcurrent protection. Branch-circuit applications require a protective device with the appropriate classification and interrupting rating.
What should be verified before ordering?
Confirm the complete FNM-1-6/10 model number, 1.6 A current rating, 250 VAC voltage rating, voltage-specific interrupting capacity, time-delay characteristics, fuse dimensions and holder compatibility.
