Overview

Rated at 10 A with a 65 mm diameter and 292 mm length, this fuse-link delivers reliable short-circuit and low overcurrent protection for transformers in industrial, utility, and renewable energy applications, including power distribution systems and substations. Key specifications include a breaking capacity of 40 kA, a clearing I²t of 3.8 kA²s, and a cold resistance of 70 mΩ. The fuse-body is constructed from high-strength ceramic for superior arc resistance and thermal stability, while the fuse-elements are made from pure silver to ensure consistent performance under fault conditions. Copper caps, silver-coated for enhanced corrosion resistance, provide low-resistance electrical contact, minimizing heat generation and ensuring reliable operation over the fuse’s lifespan. The striker mechanism delivers 80 N of force upon operation, enabling remote indication or tripping of associated equipment such as circuit breakers or alarms, which is critical for maintaining system safety and reducing downtime. With a power dissipation of 8 W, the X1000152 is optimized for high-efficiency operation in demanding environments. The fuse-link’s design accounts for environmental factors such as temperature fluctuations and vibration to maintain reliability in critical protection circuits. Mersen’s decades of experience in high-voltage fuse technology ensure predictable operation and long service life in transformer protection applications.
