Why Choose the Mersen T078930 MI5SA40V0.125 Semiconductor Miniature Fuse?
The Mersen T078930 (MI5SA40V0.125) is a compact 5 × 20 mm semiconductor miniature fuse designed to protect sensitive electronic components from damaging overcurrents. Part of the Mersen SA 400 V fuse range, it combines dependable fault interruption with a medium time-lag characteristic suitable for circuits that may experience brief current surges during normal operation.
With a rated current of 0.125 A and an IEC rated voltage of 400 V AC, the T078930 provides precise protection for low-current electronic and industrial control circuits. Its medium time-lag response allows short-duration inrush currents to pass while disconnecting sustained overloads and short-circuit faults.
The fuse has a compact clip-mounted format and a minimum breaking capacity of 10 kA. This makes it suitable for industrial electronics, instrumentation, automation equipment and semiconductor-based systems where reliable protection and space-efficient installation are important.
