Why Choose the Mersen A095496 MI5SA40V2 Miniature Fuse?
The Mersen A095496 MI5SA40V2 is a compact 2 A semiconductor miniature fuse designed to provide reliable protection for sensitive electronic components, industrial control equipment and electrical circuits. Part of Mersen’s MI5SA 400 V miniature fuse series, it combines dependable overcurrent protection with a space-saving 5 × 20 mm cartridge format.
Its medium time-lag SA operating characteristic allows the fuse to withstand brief inrush and transient currents without unnecessary operation. This makes it particularly suitable for circuits that experience short-duration current surges during start-up while still requiring effective protection against sustained overloads and short circuits.
Rated at 2 A and 400 V AC, the Mersen A095496 is designed for clip mounting in a compatible miniature fuse holder. Its compact construction, very high breaking capacity and proven performance make it suitable for industrial automation, power supplies, electronic equipment and OEM control systems.

Reliable Protection for Electronic Circuits
Electronic and semiconductor components can be damaged when excessive current generates heat beyond their operating limits. The Mersen A095496 helps protect connected equipment by interrupting sustained overloads and short-circuit currents before damaging energy reaches sensitive components.
The medium time-lag characteristic allows harmless start-up and transient currents to pass without immediately operating the fuse. This helps reduce nuisance fuse replacement while maintaining dependable protection against genuine electrical faults.
Typical Applications
- Semiconductor device protection.
- Industrial electronic control equipment.
- Power supplies and control circuits.
- Automation and instrumentation systems.
- Equipment with inrush or transient current conditions.
- OEM electronic and electrical assemblies.
