Bussmann MDL-8-R 8A 250VAC Time Delay Glass Fuse 5PK
Five-pack of 8 A 250 V AC time-delay glass fuses with 10 kA interrupt at 125 V and 200 A at 250 V
- Time-delay characteristic prevents nuisance trips from brief surges
- 8 A rating at 250 V AC suits standard circuits
- 10 kA interrupt at 125 V AC handles high fault currents
- 200 A interrupt at 250 V AC provides robust protection
- Glass cylindrical body allows visual inspection of element
8 A Time-Delay Glass Fuse Pack
This pack contains five Bussmann MDL-8-R fuses rated at 8 A and 250 V AC. They use a cylindrical glass body measuring 1-1/4 inches long by 1/4 inch in diameter. The time-delay characteristic tolerates brief inrush currents without opening. They suit maintenance of equipment specifying MDL, MDQ, MDV or MDX series fuses.
Interrupt Ratings and Voltage Limits
The fuses interrupt 10 kA at 125 V AC and 200 A at 250 V AC. They must not be used above the 250 V AC rating. The non-rejection body fits standard clips but offers no keying against wrong amperage. Glass construction allows visual inspection of the element after a fault.
8 A Rating Determines Fit
The 8 ampere rating is the single value that decides whether this fuse protects a given circuit correctly. A lower rating will nuisance-blow; a higher rating will not protect the wiring. Verify the original fuse marking or the equipment manual calls for exactly 8 A before installing. Equivalent series include Littelfuse 313 and 315 and Mersen GDL and GDV.

Questions about this item
Should I pick the 5-pack or look for a different quantity?
This listing is a 5-pack of 8 A, 250 V AC time-delay glass fuses; no other pack sizes are offered here.
What does the 250 V AC rating mean when the fuse is installed?
It is rated for 250 V AC circuits with a 200 A interrupt capacity at that voltage.
Which standard defines the 1-1/4 × 1/4 inch cylindrical format?
The MDL series follows the common 1-1/4 in by 1/4 in glass cartridge standard used in many panels.
