Why Choose the Mersen S081137 Medium Voltage Cylindrical Fuse?
The Mersen S081137 is a compact medium voltage cylindrical fuse designed to protect specialised electrical equipment against damaging overcurrent and short-circuit conditions. Manufactured by Mersen Ferraz Shawmut, it provides dependable current-limiting protection for circuits operating at elevated voltages.
With a rated voltage of 5.5 kV AC and a rated current of 1.6 A, the S081137 is suited to low-current medium voltage applications where fast and controlled fault interruption is required. Its current-limiting performance helps reduce the thermal and mechanical energy passed into protected equipment during a severe electrical fault.
The fuse features a compact 10 × 180 mm cylindrical body for installation within a compatible medium voltage fuse holder or assembly. Its robust industrial construction makes it suitable for control transformers, voltage transformers, auxiliary circuits and specialised power distribution equipment.

Reliable Protection for Medium Voltage Equipment
Medium voltage fuses interrupt excessive fault currents before they can cause serious damage to transformers, switchgear, conductors and associated electrical equipment. Current-limiting operation reduces the peak current and fault energy allowed to pass through the protected circuit.
The Mersen S081137 is particularly suited to applications requiring a low current rating combined with a medium voltage capability. Correct coordination with the circuit voltage, prospective short-circuit current and compatible fuse holder is essential for safe and reliable operation.
Typical Applications
- Control and auxiliary transformers.
- Voltage transformer protection.
- Medium voltage control circuits.
- Industrial switchgear assemblies.
- Specialised power supplies.
