Overview

The Mersen SLR1-1/2 (SKU: SLR1-1/2) is a fast-acting, 300V AC in-line fuse rated at 1.5A, designed specifically for protecting fluorescent lighting fixtures and electronic ballasts in commercial, industrial, and institutional applications. Part of Mersen’s SLR series, this fuse delivers precise overcurrent protection with a 10kA interrupting rating, ensuring rapid response to faults while maintaining circuit continuity. Its 300V rating supports use in both 120V and 277V lighting circuits, making it ideal for compact fluorescent lamps (CFLs), linear fluorescent tubes, and high-intensity discharge (HID) lighting systems. The SLR1-1/2 is UL Listed (File No. E10480) and CSA Certified, meeting stringent safety standards for mission-critical environments. With a compact form factor and industry-standard dimensions, it integrates seamlessly into panelboards, lighting control panels, and distribution boards. The fuse features a ceramic body and silver-plated end caps for thermal stability and corrosion resistance, extending service life in high-temperature or humid conditions. Compatible with Mersen’s SHR fuse holders (single or double wire versions), the SLR1-1/2 offers a cost-effective, plug-and-play solution for facilities upgrading to energy-efficient lighting or maintaining legacy fluorescent systems. Trusted by electrical contractors, facility managers, and lighting designers, this fuse minimizes downtime and reduces maintenance costs while safeguarding sensitive lighting components from transient surges, short circuits, and overload conditions.
