Why Choose the Mersen FR10GG40V8P Cylindrical Fuse Link?
The Mersen FR10GG40V8P is a dependable 10 × 38 mm gG cylindrical fuse link with striker designed to protect cables, motors, low-voltage networks and industrial electrical equipment against overloads and short circuits. Part of the established Mersen FR10 gG ferrule fuse series, it provides reliable full-range protection for electrical distribution and industrial applications.
Its gG operating characteristic enables the fuse to interrupt both sustained overload currents and severe short-circuit faults. This helps limit damaging fault energy and protect conductors, switchgear and connected equipment from thermal and mechanical stress. The ceramic body and silver-plated copper ferrules provide robust construction and consistent electrical performance.
With a rated current of 8 A, a rated voltage of 400 V AC and an AC breaking capacity of 100 kA, the FR10GG40V8P is suitable for demanding industrial installations. Its integrated striker can operate a compatible auxiliary contact, providing remote indication when the fuse has operated.
