Why Choose the Mersen Q075684 MI5M25V10P Miniature Fuse?
The Mersen Q075684, also identified as MI5M25V10P, is a compact 5 × 25 mm miniature cartridge fuse designed to provide dependable overcurrent protection for industrial controls, electrical equipment and electronic circuits. Manufactured by Mersen, it combines a 10 A current rating with a 250 V AC voltage rating for use in a wide range of low-voltage applications.
This fuse features a medium time-lag operating characteristic, allowing it to tolerate brief current surges without unnecessary operation while still disconnecting sustained overloads and fault currents. This makes it particularly suitable for circuits containing transformers, relays, contactors, power supplies and other components that may produce temporary inrush currents during start-up.
The integrated striker indicator provides a mechanical indication when the fuse has operated and may also be used with compatible fuse holders or signalling accessories. Its compact cylindrical construction enables straightforward installation within appropriately rated inline or panel-mounted fuse holders.
