Why Choose the Mersen NH3GTR125KVA Transformer Fuse-Link?
The Mersen NH3GTR125KVA is a high-performance DIN NH gTr transformer protection fuse-link designed specifically to protect low voltage distribution transformers against overloads and short-circuit faults. Manufactured by Mersen, this NH3 fuse-link features a time-current characteristic optimised for transformer protection, allowing it to withstand transformer energisation currents whilst providing rapid fault clearance when required.
Part of the proven Mersen NH gTr 400 V AC fuse-link series, the NH3GTR125KVA is designed for 125 kVA transformers and has a 180 A rated current. It incorporates a centre blown-fuse indicator together with live gripping lugs, enabling quick fault identification and safe replacement using an approved NH fuse puller.
Its robust ceramic construction and NH3 format make it ideal for industrial switchboards, transformer feeders, substations and commercial power distribution systems where dependable transformer protection is essential.

Reliable Protection for Distribution Transformers
The Mersen NH3GTR125KVA has been specifically developed for transformer protection. Unlike general-purpose gG fuse-links, its gTr operating characteristic is matched to transformer magnetising currents, allowing normal energisation without nuisance operation whilst maintaining excellent protection against overload and short-circuit faults.
The fuse-link forms part of the standard NH fuse system and should be installed in a compatible NH3 fuse base by suitably qualified personnel using an approved NH fuse puller and appropriate personal protective equipment.
Typical Applications
- 125 kVA distribution transformers.
- Industrial transformer switchboards.
- Commercial electrical distribution systems.
