Eaton MIC-1 Fuse - Midget Fuse, 35 AIC @250V CE
Part Number: MIC-1
Quick Summary
MIC-1 fuse provides fast-acting protection for control and PLC circuits in industrial systems. When wiring limits lead to nuisance trips or unintended downtime, selecting the correct rating and end connections matters. CE marked for European compliance, rugged nickel-plated bronze endcaps, and ferrule-end terminations support reliable field installations. In practice, this means predictable performance in control circuits and PLC protection workflows, with easy interchange in legacy MIC fuses. Designed for panel builders and OEMs, MIC-1 integrates with standard ferrule-end connections and fits compact spaces. Its 1 A rating and 35 AIC interrupt rating at 250 Vac align with control circuitry protection, reducing the risk of damaging electronics.

Feature → Business Impact → Application: The MIC-1 is a fast-acting fuse, which provides rapid interruption during overcurrent events, protecting expensive control electronics and PLC inputs from damage. This translates to reduced downtime and lower replacement costs in automation lines, especially during startup or transient fault conditions in machine controls. Application-wise, it suits control circuits and electronic circuits in industrial panels where compact form and reliable protection are required. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Ferrule-end x ferrule-end connections paired with nickel-plated bronze endcaps deliver durable terminations that resist wear and corrosion in harsh environments, improving long-term reliability in enclosure-mounted fuse holders. Application: panel-mounted protection in motor control centers and control panels. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Non-indicating fuse design minimizes maintenance overhead and simplifies stock management, enabling faster swaps and lower calibration risks in high-velocity production lines. Application: replacement in legacy MIC fuse installations and compact Control PLC enclosures. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Compact size (1.813 in L, 0.47 in W, 0.47 in H) and a 1 A rating with a 35 AIC interrupt rating at 250 Vac offer precise protection without excessive current limiting, supporting tight panel layouts and compliant electrical protection. Application: tight-control panels and machine control circuits. Feature → Business Impact → Application: CE marking provides European regulatory compliance support, facilitating cross-border installation and supplier approvals. Application: equipment destined for CE-regulated markets. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Compatibility with Bussmann MIC fuse families ensures straightforward replacement and field upgrade paths, reducing installation time and risk of mismatch. Application: modernizing legacy protection schemes in PLC and control circuitry.

FAQs
Install MIC-1 using ferrule-end x ferrule-end connections in standard fuse holders designed for Bussmann MIC fuses. Ensure correct amperage (1 A) and confirm 250 V rating. Slide it into the holder until the endcaps seat firmly, then verify the circuit is de-energized before servicing. The nickel-plated bronze endcaps resist wear, supporting life-cycle reliability in control panels and PLC enclosures.
MIC-1 is rated at 1 A with a 35 AIC interrupt rating at 250 Vac. This means it will rapidly interrupt fault currents up to 35 A at line voltage, protecting sensitive control electronics without nuisance opening under normal transients. The 250 V rating is suitable for common control and PLC circuits within a standard European or North American industrial environment.
Yes. The MIC-1 is a fast-acting midget fuse designed for control circuits, PLC circuits, and electronic circuits. Its compact 1 A rating and 35 AIC interrupt rating provide precise protection for PLC inputs and control electronics, helping minimize downtime and extend device life in automation panels.
MIC-1 is CE marked, indicating compliance with European safety and regulatory requirements for electrical equipment. This supports market access in CE regions and simplifies procurement for European projects. The data does not list additional certifications, so verify regional requirements for UL/CSA or IP ratings if those are essential for your application.
Choose MIC-1 where fast protection, compact footprint, and durable ferrule-end terminations are priorities. Its non-indicating design reduces maintenance checks, while compatibility with standard MIC fuse holders speeds replacements. In high-throughput lines, standard packaging and universal end-terminals minimize downtime during fuse swaps and inventory management, delivering measurable uptime improvements.
