Fuses prevent overloads and shorts by cutting off the electric supply when the electrical current reaches a certain level. They are important components in many electrical devices, used to protect against unpredictable electrical surges or sudden increases in current. The GMW-1/8 is a Low Voltage Automotive Fuse developed by General Motors. It is a general purpose fuse designed for most automotive applications, and is used to protect the vehicle from electrical damage.

The GMW-1/8 is a low-profile, circular fuse made of thermoplastic and epoxy materials. The diameter of the fuse is 8.62 mm, with a maximum rated voltage of 32 VDC. It also features a temperature rating of -40°C to +150°C, and a maximum amp rating of 10A. This fuse is capable of withstanding higher levels of current when compared to other types of automotive fuses, making it suitable for applications such as lighting systems, audio systems, or other automotive electronics.

The GMW-1/8 fuse also features a self-resetting effect. In the event of an overload or short circuit, the fuse will automatically stop the electrical flow and reset itself without replacement. This makes the GMW-1/8 fuse ideal for applications where there is limited access to replace the fuse. It also eliminates the need for external devices or fuses which may impede the performance of the electrical system.

The working principle behind the GMW-1/8 fuse is based on the concept of a heated filament. When a large electrical current passes through the fuse, the filament will become hot, causing it to expand. As the filament expands, it eventually disconnects the electrical circuit, interrupting the flow of current and protecting the device from damage.

The GMW-1/8 fuse is commonly used in automotive applications, such as lighting, audio, or other electronics, and is also suitable for other low voltage applications. It is a reliable and cost-effective solution for protecting electrical electronics from unexpected surges or increases in current. Additionally, its self-resetting effect eliminates the need for replacement and provides a durable and efficient protection solution.
