Why Choose the Mersen NH32GTR630KVA-8 Transformer Fuse-Link?
The Mersen NH32GTR630KVA-8 is a high-performance NH gTr low voltage transformer fuse-link developed specifically to protect distribution transformers against overloads and short circuits. Its transformer-matched time-current characteristic provides dependable protection while accommodating the temporary inrush currents produced when a transformer is energised.
As part of the specialised Mersen NH gTr 400 V AC fuse-link series, the NH32GTR630KVA-8 offers high current-limiting performance, excellent selectivity with downstream gG fuse-links and reliable operation in demanding power distribution environments. Its top-mounted indicator allows maintenance teams to identify an operated fuse quickly, while the live gripping tags support removal with a suitable NH fuse replacement device.
Designed for 630 kVA transformers, this NH3 fuse-link has a rated current of 909 A and an operating voltage of 400 V AC. It is suitable for transformer substations, industrial switchgear, commercial distribution systems and infrastructure applications requiring robust, precisely coordinated transformer protection.

The Mersen NH32GTR630KVA-8 uses a gTr time-current characteristic tailored specifically to the operating behaviour of distribution transformers. This allows the fuse-link to tolerate normal transformer energisation and loading conditions while providing precise interruption when sustained overloads or damaging short-circuit currents occur.
Its high breaking capacity and strong current-limiting performance help reduce the electrical and thermal stress placed on transformers, conductors and switchgear during a fault. The fuse-link also provides coordinated selectivity with suitable downstream gG protection, helping isolate affected circuits without unnecessarily interrupting the wider electrical installation.

- 630 kVA distribution transformer protection.
- Industrial transformer substations.
- Low voltage switchgear assemblies.
- Commercial power distribution systems.
- Manufacturing and processing facilities.
