Overview

The Mersen Sure Guard ETP fuse (SKU: 9F59UBE201) is a current-limiting fuse designed for external transformer protection in overhead distribution systems. This fuse operates in series with expulsion fuses to limit high-fault currents to safe levels across the entire fault current spectrum. With a voltage rating of 23000 V and a current rating of 12 kA, it ensures reliable protection in demanding electrical environments. The fuse is compatible with conventional transformer expulsion-fuse cutouts and can be installed directly onto high-voltage bushings of self-protected transformers alongside internal expulsion fuses. It features Mersen Size 72 type TTF M10 threaded terminals and a rated breaking capacity of 126 kA.
