Overview

The Mersen GTL15 (SKU: GTL15) is a non-time-delay plug fuse designed for reliable overcurrent protection in 125V AC circuits up to 15A. This fuse is specifically engineered for receptacle and lighting circuits, providing rapid interruption of faults to safeguard connected equipment. Its low melting-point temperature element ensures a swift response to overloads and short circuits, minimizing downtime and enhancing operational continuity. Part of Mersen's GP series, the GTL15 is rated for 125 Volts AC and 15 Amps, with an interrupting rating of 10kA AC. It features a standard Edison base, making it compatible with common fuse holders. The GTL series, including the GTL15, is suitable for both industrial and residential applications, offering dependable protection for general-purpose outlets, lighting fixtures, and auxiliary circuits within control panels. Mersen offers a range of plug fuses including the G/GP/TD/GW/GTL/GT/GSL series. Standard non-time-delay fuses like the GTL15 are ideal for receptacle and lighting circuits. For Canadian requirements, Type "P" fuses are used for non-motor loads, and Type "D" fuses are for electric heating and cyclical load circuits. Both feature low melting-point temperature elements. Type "S" plug fuses are time-delay and tamper-resistant. The GTL15 is available in Edison Base, with a 125VAC rating and 15A current rating, and a 10kA I.R. AC interrupting rating.

The National Electric Code now permits Edison-base fuses to be used only for replacements in existing installations, and then, only when there is no evidence of overfusing or tampering. All new Edison-based fuseholders must have Type S fuse adapters installed before they are placed in service. Designed to prevent installation of wrong size fuses, Type S Adapters (SAO series) screw into Edison-base fuseholders so they may accept Type S fuses. Once installed the adapters cannot be removed. To prevent shunting of open fuses or overfusing, and to reduce nuisance fuse opening, it is recommended that SAO adapters with properly rated SLO or SOO series fuses be installed in all Edison-base fuseholders.
