Why Choose the Mersen A3T3 Class T Fuse?
The Mersen A3T3 is a compact, fast-acting Class T fuse designed to provide dependable overcurrent and short-circuit protection in industrial and commercial electrical systems. As part of the established Mersen Amp-Trap® A3T series, it offers high current-limiting performance in a space-saving package.
This fuse rapidly interrupts damaging fault currents, helping to minimise the thermal and mechanical stress placed on conductors, switchgear and connected equipment. Its Class T configuration provides excellent protection where panel space is restricted and a high interrupting capacity is required.
With a rated current of 3 A, an AC voltage rating of 300 V and a DC voltage rating of 160 V, the Mersen A3T3 is suitable for low-current control circuits, distribution equipment and sensitive industrial systems requiring fast and reliable circuit protection.
Key Advantages
- Compact Class T fast-acting fuse for industrial circuit protection.

Reliable Protection for Low-Current Circuits
Fast-acting fuses such as the Mersen A3T3 respond rapidly when excessive current flows through a circuit. By interrupting fault current before it reaches its full prospective value, the fuse helps protect wiring, control components and connected electrical equipment from potentially severe damage.
The A3T series combines high interrupting capacity with compact dimensions, making it particularly useful in installations where available panel space is limited. Its current-limiting performance also supports improved short-circuit coordination within properly designed electrical systems.
