Overview

The Mersen Protistor® K082487 is a British Standard 10x28mm gR fuse-link designed for high-speed semiconductor protection in 250V AC systems. Rated at 15A, this fuse-link meets VDE 636-23 and IEC 60269-4 gR class requirements, ensuring precise and reliable overcurrent protection for sensitive power semiconductors. With an extremely high breaking capacity, it safeguards critical electronic components from short circuits and overloads in applications such as inverters, UPS systems, and motor drives. The compact 10x28mm size makes it ideal for space-constrained installations where visual indication is unnecessary. Manufactured by Mersen, a leader in electrical protection solutions, this fuse-link delivers consistent performance with low power dissipation (1.9W at 15A) and a pre-arcing I²t of 3.6 A²s. Compatible with standard British Standard fuse blocks, it provides a cost-effective solution for protecting equipment operating at 250V AC or less. UNSPSC Code: 39121628. Country of Origin: US.
