Why Choose the Mersen H220025 Medium Voltage Fuse?
The Mersen H220025 is a specialised medium voltage cylindrical fuse designed to protect potential transformers, voltage transformers and associated electrical equipment against damaging fault currents. Also identified by the commercial reference FR20GC155C3,15, it provides precise current-limiting protection for compatible medium voltage installations.
Engineered for rapid fault interruption, the H220025 restricts the peak current and electrical energy permitted to pass through the protected circuit during a short circuit. This helps minimise thermal and mechanical stress on transformers, conductors, switchgear and connected metering or protection equipment.
With a rated voltage of 15.5 kV AC, a rated current of 3.15 A and a compact 20 × 254 mm cylindrical body, the Mersen H220025 is suitable for compatible fuse holders and transformer protection assemblies. Its high voltage capability and low current rating make it particularly suitable for instrument transformer and auxiliary circuit protection.
