Why Choose the ABB E9F10AM8 Cylindrical Fuse?
The ABB E9F10AM8 is a compact and reliable 8 A aM cylindrical fuse link designed primarily for short-circuit protection of motor circuits and associated industrial electrical equipment. Part of the ABB E 9F cylindrical fuse range, it uses a standard 10.3 × 38 mm format suitable for compatible fuse holders and motor-control applications.
Featuring an aM utilisation category, the E9F10AM8 is intended for motor circuits where temporary starting currents must be accommodated without unnecessary fuse operation. Its partial-range characteristic provides protection against high fault currents while overload protection is normally provided by a coordinated overload relay or other suitable motor-protection device.
With a rated current of 8 A and compact 10.3 × 38 mm dimensions, the E9F10AM8 provides an efficient protection solution for motors, machinery and industrial automation equipment. ABB order code 2CSM258733R1801 identifies this specific fuse link within the ABB Protection & Control portfolio.

Reliable Protection for Industrial Motor Circuits
aM cylindrical fuse links are designed primarily to protect motor circuits against short-circuit currents while accommodating the temporary high current associated with motor starting. This characteristic makes them suitable for coordinated protection arrangements in industrial machinery and motor-control systems.
Because an aM fuse provides partial-range rather than full-range protection, an appropriate overload relay or equivalent protective device is normally used to provide motor overload protection. The ABB E9F10AM8 combines this motor-oriented characteristic with a compact 10.3 × 38 mm format for straightforward installation in compatible equipment.
Typical Applications
- Industrial motor circuits and motor starters.
- Pumps, fans and ventilation equipment.
- Conveyor and material handling systems.
- Production and processing machinery.
- Motor control centres and electrical panels.
- Industrial automation systems with separate overload protection.
