The Mersen J081796 is a high performance medium voltage cylindrical fuse designed to provide dependable protection for public lighting networks, transformers and electrical distribution equipment. Also identified by the commercial reference 36GD32V8P, this current-limiting fuse delivers reliable fault interruption for demanding industrial and utility applications.
Engineered to rapidly interrupt excessive fault currents, the J081796 helps minimise thermal and mechanical stress on cables, switchgear and associated electrical equipment. Its current-limiting design improves system protection, helping reduce equipment damage and costly downtime following electrical faults.
With a rated current of 8 A, a 36 × 190 mm cylindrical body and an integrated striker mechanism, the Mersen J081796 is suitable for compatible medium voltage fuse holders used in electrical distribution and public lighting applications.
Medium voltage fuses are designed to interrupt excessive fault currents before they can damage switchgear, transformers and associated electrical infrastructure. Their current-limiting action reduces both peak fault current and let-through energy, improving equipment protection and operational reliability.
The Mersen J081796 combines a compact cylindrical design with an integrated striker and dependable current-limiting performance, making it suitable for maintenance, replacement and new installations where compatibility with the intended equipment has been confirmed.
