Provides supplemental overcurrent protection for electrical circuits requiring a 0.3 A time-delay fuse rating.
Designed for compatible AC control and equipment circuits operating within the published 250 VAC rating.
Helps accommodate temporary inrush currents associated with inductive loads, motors and transformers according to the published fuse time-current characteristics.
Uses a nominal 10.3 x 38.1 mm cylindrical cartridge design for installation in dimensionally compatible and properly rated fuse holders.
Provides an interrupting rating of 35 A at 250 VAC and 10 kA at 125 VAC. Selection must account for available fault current at the actual system voltage.
Combines melamine tube construction, dual-element time-delay operation and ferrule connections for suitable inductive control circuits.

What is the Bussmann FNM-3/10?
It is a 300 mA time-delay midget fuse from the Eaton Bussmann FNM series, designed for supplemental overcurrent protection.
Who manufactures FNM-3/10?
FNM-3/10 is a product in the Eaton Bussmann series of electrical circuit protection devices.
What is the current rating?
The rated current is 0.3 A, equivalent to 300 mA or three-tenths of an ampere.
What is its voltage rating?
The specified voltage rating is 250 VAC maximum.
Is FNM-3/10 a fast-acting fuse?
No. It is a dual-element time-delay fuse designed to accommodate certain temporary inrush currents.
What is the interrupting rating at 250 VAC?
The published interrupting rating for FNM-3/10 is 35 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 value must not be applied to circuits operating at 250 VAC.
What are the fuse dimensions?
The nominal dimensions are 10.3 mm in diameter and 38.1 mm in length, corresponding to the midget cartridge fuse format.
Does this fuse have a visual indicator?
No. The standard FNM-3/10 is a non-indicating fuse.
What type of terminals does it use?
It uses ferrule-style end caps made of nickel-plated bronze for installation in compatible fuse holders.
Can FNM-3/10 be used for branch-circuit protection?
The FNM series is intended for supplemental overcurrent protection. Branch-circuit applications require a protection device with the appropriate classification and interrupting capacity.
What should be verified before ordering?
Confirm the FNM-3/10 model number, 300 mA current rating, 250 VAC voltage rating, voltage-specific interrupting capacity, time-delay requirements, physical dimensions and fuse-holder compatibility.
