Overview

The Mersen 40608G (SKU: 40608G) is a 3-pole Class G fuse block rated for 480VAC/VDC and 60A. This fuse block is designed to accommodate all Class G fuses, including 15A, 20A, 30A, and 60A ratings. It features a copper box connector suitable for stranded or solid copper wire, accommodating wire sizes from #4 to #14 AWG. The fuse clips are constructed from high-conductivity tin-plated copper alloy, with spring reinforcing for the 60A clips to ensure secure fuse retention and minimize resistance and heat buildup. The insulator is made of glass-filled polycarbonate (GFPC), offering dielectric strength exceeding 2500V and a temperature rating of 1250°C RTI with 94V-0 flammability, ensuring safety and durability in industrial settings. This fuse block meets UL 4248 requirements and is UL Listed (File E52283) and CSA Certified (File 32169). Applications include motor control centers, panelboards, and distribution boards requiring reliable overcurrent protection. The unique adder-block design allows for flexible multi-pole configurations. SCCR is rated at 100kA.
