    Selection Notes

    • Interrupting capability is 200 A at 250 Vac; 10,000 A at 125 Vac — confirm the circuit's prospective fault current stays below this.
    • Ceramic body holds higher breaking capacity than glass at the same footprint.
    • It is the usual choice where prospective fault current is high.
    • Working voltage must stay at or below 125 Vdc; a lower-rated part is not a safe substitute.
    • Do not upsize beyond 3 A to stop nuisance trips — fix the cause instead.

    Typical Applications

    Engineers usually specify it for these duties:

    • EV

    Q&A

    What are the ratings of the MDA-3-R?

    3 A continuous at 125 Vdc, interrupting rating 200 A at 250 Vac; 10,000 A at 125 Vac.

    Is the MDA-3-R fast-acting or time-delay?

    It is slow-blow. It tolerates short inrush surges.

    Can the MDA-3-R be used on a higher fault-current circuit?

    No — its interrupting rating is 200 A at 250 Vac; 10,000 A at 125 Vac. Choose a part whose breaking capacity exceeds the prospective fault current.
