Overview

Mersen Limitor®-P P1006102 is a high-voltage DIN back-up fuse engineered for transformer protection in medium-voltage systems. This 12 kVAC-rated fuse delivers reliable short-circuit interruption with an 80 A current rating, meeting IEC 60282-1 and VDE 0670 T4 standards. The fuse features a ceramic body for superior dielectric strength, pure silver fuse elements for consistent performance, and copper caps coated with silver to ensure low contact resistance. With a breaking capacity of 31.5 kA and a clearing I²t of 120 kA²s, the P1006102 responds rapidly to fault conditions while maintaining system integrity. The standard striker mechanism (80N) provides visual indication of fuse operation for quick diagnostics. Measuring 88mm in diameter and 442mm in length, this fuse is designed for DIN mounting and integrates seamlessly with Mersen’s Limitor®-P series. The cold resistance of 9.4 mΩ and power dissipation of 83 W at rated current ensure efficient thermal management in high-load scenarios. The fuse’s high breaking capacity, low switching voltage, and quick breaking capability make it a dependable choice for medium-voltage applications.
