Overview

The Mersen R216192 NH00 fuse base is a single-pole DIN rail-mounted component designed for low-voltage fuse systems up to 160A. Rated for 1000VAC and 1000VDC, this plastic EP-type base ensures reliable electrical connections in industrial control panels, switchgear, and distribution systems. Its square contact design (EP) features stable silver-plated electrolytic copper springs with captive steel springs for thermal stress resistance. The base supports close parallel mounting in rows and includes phase-partition walls for three-pole configurations. With a power acceptance of 12W and rated impulse withstand voltage of 6kV, the R216192 meets IEC standards for safety and performance. Compatible with NH fuse-links, it offers screw or DIN rail installation options for flexible deployment. Ideal for applications requiring high interrupting capacity and compact footprint in power distribution systems. Manufactured by Mersen (France), this fuse base is a critical component for low-voltage protection in industrial environments.
