Overview

The Mersen Sure Guard ETP back-up current-limiting fuse (SKU: 9F59UBD134) is a high-voltage fuse designed for external transformer protection in overhead distribution systems. This fuse operates at a voltage rating of 15.5 kV and features a 40 kA interrupting rating, enabling it to safely handle significant fault currents in distribution networks. Its 25T time-current characteristic ensures precise protection coordination for overhead distribution applications, making it ideal for use in series with expulsion fuses. The ETP fuse provides enhanced protection for conventional transformers installed in cutouts or for high-voltage bushings on self-protected transformers. With a robust design and specific ratings, this fuse safeguards distribution transformers against damaging overcurrents and short circuits. Manufactured by Mersen, a leader in electrical protection solutions, the ETP fuse delivers reliable performance for critical infrastructure.
