Why Choose the Mersen NH0GG50V160 NH Fuse-Link?
The Mersen NH0GG50V160 is a high-performance NH size 0 gG fuse-link designed to provide full-range protection against overload and short-circuit currents in industrial electrical installations. Rated at 160 A and 500 V AC, it is suitable for protecting cables, conductors, switchgear and power distribution equipment in demanding commercial and industrial systems.
Its gG utilisation category provides reliable general-purpose protection throughout the fuse-link's complete operating range. The NH0GG50V160 responds to sustained overload currents and severe short-circuit faults, while its current-limiting performance helps reduce thermal and mechanical stress on downstream equipment.
The fuse-link features a robust ceramic body, brass plain-blade contacts, live gripping lugs and a practical double indication system. Its DIN-standard NH0 construction allows straightforward installation in compatible NH fuse bases, fuse-switch disconnectors and low-voltage distribution assemblies.

Reliable Full-Range Circuit Protection
The Mersen NH0GG50V160 protects industrial electrical systems by interrupting both prolonged overload currents and high prospective short-circuit faults. Its gG characteristic makes it suitable for the general protection of cables, conductors and electrical equipment throughout low-voltage distribution installations.
During a severe fault, the fuse-link limits the peak current and let-through energy reaching downstream components. This helps minimise damage to cables, busbars, switchgear and connected equipment while supporting safe and dependable electrical system operation.
Typical Applications
- Industrial power distribution boards.
- Main switchboards and electrical panels.
- Cable and conductor protection.
- Machine control and automation panels.
- Fuse-switch disconnectors.
- Commercial and industrial low-voltage installations.
