Discuss Using aR fuse instead of aM in the UK Electrical Forum area at ElectriciansForums.net
But what if we used one for the other type? As far as i guess the only difference will be short circuit opening time. Fast acting will open fast.All I know of fuses is a gG is for general use and a gM is for motors
Yes that's exactly difference i think. It will withstand in rush current better. The only thing is i hope fast acting is not that fast and can withstand in rush current. There is no exact resource about all of these fuse types. I could only find this EE02:FUSES BY MARKING | Book of Engineering - https://bookofengineering.com/ee02fuses-by-marking/Some fuses cope with inrush currents better than others, its like the B,C,D type breakers. I would imagine a gM fuse will take more of an inrush than a gG fuse without blowing but I'm no expert in the commercial side of electrics like some are on here.
