Why Choose the Mersen P081801 Medium Voltage Fuse?
The Mersen P081801, manufacturer reference 36GD32V2, is a high-performance 2 A medium voltage cylindrical fuse-link designed to protect public lighting networks, utility infrastructure and specialist medium voltage distribution systems. Its current-limiting characteristics rapidly interrupt fault currents, helping to minimise thermal and mechanical stress on switchgear, transformers, cables and associated electrical equipment.
Manufactured by Mersen, this fuse features a durable 36 × 190 mm cylindrical body with an integrated striker for use in compatible medium voltage fuse holders. The striker provides mechanical indication or can operate compatible switchgear following fuse operation, making it ideal for demanding utility and infrastructure applications.
With a rated current of 2 A, a rated voltage of 3.2 kV AC and a 50 kA breaking capacity, the P081801 provides dependable protection for low-current medium voltage circuits where reliable fault interruption is essential.
