marking if fuse acting in USA ?

2006-02-06 by Dieter Doepfer

Dear members,

many customers from USA, Canada and other countries ask how they can find
out the acting type (fast/medium/slow) of a fuse. As you may know the time
lag (slow) fuses are necessary for the A-100.

For the fuses we use an additional "T" on the metal cylinder of the fuse
indicates the slow (time lag) version, "F" the fast and "M" the medium. I
don't know how the fuses available in USA or Canada indicate if the are
fast/quick (maybe "F" or "Q"?), medium (probably "M" ?) or slow (maybe "S"
or "T" ?).

If anybody knows how the fuse acting types (fast/medium/slow) are marked in
USA/Canada please give a short info. I will add this info to our FAQ page as
sometimes users located in USA, Canada or other countries ask for that.

Thank you
Dieter
