£148.58
The Mersen G081610 is a high performance medium voltage cylindrical fuse designed to protect public lighting networks and compatible electrical distribution systems against damaging overcurrents and short circuits. Also identified by the commercial reference 36GB55V6P, it provides reliable current-limiting protection for specialised 5.5 kV installations.
Engineered to IEC medium voltage fuse standards, the G081610 rapidly interrupts electrical faults to help minimise thermal and mechanical stress on cables, switchgear and connected equipment. Its robust cylindrical construction supports dependable performance in demanding infrastructure applications where continuity and electrical safety are essential.
With a rated current of 6 A, a rated voltage of 5.5 kV AC and a compact 36 × 250 mm body, the Mersen G081610 is suitable for compatible medium voltage fuse holders and switchgear. An integrated striker mechanism provides mechanical indication or operation of associated switching equipment when the fuse interrupts a fault.
Medium voltage fuses protect electrical infrastructure by interrupting excessive fault currents before they can cause severe damage to cables, switchgear and connected equipment. Their current-limiting action reduces the peak current and fault energy permitted to pass through the circuit.
The Mersen G081610 is particularly suited to compatible public lighting networks and intermediate medium voltage distribution systems. Its defined 6 A rating, compact cylindrical dimensions and integrated striker make it a dependable option for maintenance, replacement and new electrical infrastructure projects.
