Why Choose the Mersen G081495 Medium Voltage Fuse?

The Mersen G081495 is a dependable medium voltage cylindrical fuse designed to protect electrical distribution equipment against damaging short-circuit currents. Also identified by the manufacturer reference 55GD55V32, it forms part of Mersen’s range of current-limiting fuses for specialised industrial, utility and public lighting applications.

Engineered for reliable fault interruption, the G081495 helps limit the thermal and mechanical stresses imposed on cables, switchgear and connected equipment during an electrical fault. Its robust cylindrical construction supports consistent performance in demanding medium voltage installations where effective circuit protection is essential.

With a rated voltage of 5.5 kV AC, a rated current of 32 A and a 55 × 259 mm cylindrical body, the Mersen G081495 is suited to compatible IEC fuse systems. This version is supplied without a striker mechanism and is commonly associated with public lighting and intermediate medium voltage distribution applications.
