Overview

The Mersen A084801 is a cylindrical fuse-link designed for reliable protection in electrical distribution circuits and industrial applications. This gG type fuse-link features a 10x38mm physical size and is rated for 400VAC and 10A. It is equipped with a striker mechanism, which can be used to activate an auxiliary contact for remote indication or control. Constructed with a ceramic body and silver-plated contacts, this fuse-link ensures high technical performance and durability. The gG classification indicates its suitability for the protection of cables, motors, and low-voltage networks, effectively limiting and interrupting unacceptable overcurrents and short-circuit currents up to its nominal breaking capacity of 120 kA. It also protects electrical equipment and installations against the dynamic effects of high short-currents. Manufactured by Mersen in France, this fuse-link is a dependable component for safeguarding electrical systems. Its robust design and precise operation contribute to the overall reliability and safety of industrial electrical installations.
