BUSSMANN GMF 2 8/10 300V Fuse

The GMF-2-8/10 is a specialty fuse manufactured by Eaton Bussmann, rated for 2.8 amps and 300 volts AC. It’s a slow-blow cartridge fuse designed for industrial and electrical applications requiring time-delay protection.
Here’s a detailed breakdown of its specifications and use cases:

⚡ Electrical Characteristics
•     Current Rating: 2.8 Amps
•     Suitable for low-current circuits where precise overcurrent protection is needed.
•     Voltage Rating: 300 VAC
•     Can be safely used in circuits up to 300 volts alternating current.
•     Response Type: Time Delay (Slow Blow)
•     Designed to tolerate temporary current surges (like motor startups) without blowing.
•     Ideal for inductive loads such as motors, transformers, and solenoids.

🔧 Physical & Installation Details
•     Fuse Type: Cartridge
•     Requires a compatible fuse holder for installation.
•     Common in panel-mounted configurations.
•     Mounting Style: Panel Mount
•     Typically used in control panels or industrial enclosures.
•     Package: Non-standard
•     May require specific holders or adapters depending on your setup.

🛠️ Applications
This fuse is commonly used in:
•     HVAC systems (protecting motor circuits)
•     Industrial control panels
•     Power supplies and transformers
•     Lighting systems with inductive ballasts
Its slow-blow nature makes it ideal for circuits where inrush currents are expected but sustained overloads must be interrupted.
