Value Collection BDNA-MP7382 Automotive Fuse 40 Amp

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION BDNA-MP7382 is a 40-amp automotive blade fuse designed to protect electrical circuits in vehicles and mobile equipment. Rated at 40 amps, this orange-coded fuse follows the standard ATC/ATO color-identification system used across the automotive and light-truck industries. It is used to protect wiring and components from overcurrent conditions that can cause heat damage or fire. Automotive electricians, fleet technicians, and experienced DIYers install this fuse during circuit repairs, upgrades, or scheduled preventive maintenance on fuse blocks and inline fuse holders.

This fuse is suited for 12-volt and 24-volt DC automotive electrical systems where a 40-amp overcurrent protection device is specified. Typical applications include high-draw circuits such as cooling fans, power seats, audio amplifiers, and auxiliary equipment circuits. It installs directly into standard blade-style fuse blocks and inline fuse holders commonly found in passenger vehicles, light trucks, vans, and off-road equipment.

Key Features

• 40-amp rating provides overcurrent protection for high-draw automotive circuits
• Orange color coding follows standard blade fuse amperage identification conventions
• Blade-style form factor fits standard ATC/ATO fuse blocks and inline holders
• Compact size allows installation in tight fuse panel spaces
• Single-piece packaging for individual circuit service or stock replenishment

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement blade fuse for automotive and light-duty vehicle electrical systems requiring 40-amp overcurrent protection in standard blade-style fuse holders.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by automotive electricians or qualified technicians. Disconnect the vehicle battery or isolate the circuit before replacing any fuse to prevent accidental shorts. Always match the replacement fuse amperage exactly to the circuit specification — installing a higher-rated fuse can allow dangerous overcurrent conditions that damage wiring and components. Use a fuse puller tool when removing blades from tight fuse blocks to avoid bending contacts.
