What type of fuse is used in a motor application?

In motor applications, commonly used fuses include time-delay (or slow-blow) fuses, which can withstand the initial inrush current during motor startup without blowing. These fuses are designed to provide protection against overloads while allowing temporary surges. Additionally, circuit breakers or motor protection relays may also be used to safeguard against short circuits and overload conditions. Selecting the appropriate fuse depends on the motor's specifications and the application's requirements.
