Why Choose the Mersen K076806 Medium Voltage Fuse?
The Mersen K076806 is a compact medium voltage cylindrical fuse designed to provide dependable current-limiting protection for compatible electrical distribution, transformer and auxiliary circuits. Also identified by the alternative reference 20GG55V3,15, it offers precise protection for specialised medium voltage equipment requiring a low current rating.
Engineered to interrupt excessive fault currents rapidly, the K076806 helps limit the peak current and electrical energy allowed to pass through the protected circuit. This current-limiting action can reduce thermal and mechanical stress on conductors, transformers, switchgear and connected equipment during a short-circuit event.
With a rated voltage of 5.5 kV AC, a rated current of 3.15 A and a compact 20 × 127 mm cylindrical body, the Mersen K076806 is suitable for compatible fuse holders and medium voltage protection assemblies. Its defined dimensions and electrical ratings make it suitable for maintenance, replacement and new installation projects where compatibility has been confirmed.

Reliable Current-Limiting Protection
Medium voltage fuses protect electrical equipment by interrupting excessive fault currents before they can cause serious damage. Their current-limiting operation restricts both the peak current and total energy passing through the circuit, helping protect transformers, switchgear, conductors and associated components.
The Mersen K076806 combines a low 3.15 A current rating with a 5.5 kV AC voltage rating and compact cylindrical dimensions. Before installation, its voltage rating, current rating, fuse characteristic and physical size should be checked against the requirements of the intended fuse holder and protected equipment.
