The Voltage Rating shall be the maximum direct current (dc) or alternating current (ac) root mean square (rms) voltage for which a fuse is designed. The voltage rating is identified by a numerical value followed by the letter "V".
The
Current
Rating ist the amount of current a fuse will carry indefinitely
without interruption. The current rating in amperes and fractions
of an ampere is identified by a numerical value followed by the letter
"A".
Fuses rated below 1 A use
fractions to represent the current rating in the part number (ex.:
"1/8A" or "3/4A"). In general, fuses rated above 1 A which are not
integers use decimals for the current rating in the part number (ex.:
"1.5A" or "2.5A"). However, MIL-PRF-23419/4 (FM04) still uses the
fractional representation for parts rated above 1 A (ex.: "1-1/2A").
