Why Choose the Mersen BTF42V200 BS88 gG Fuse Link?
The Mersen BTF42V200 is a robust British Standard BS88 gG fuse link designed to provide dependable overload and short-circuit protection for industrial and commercial electrical distribution systems. Manufactured by Mersen, it offers effective current limitation to help protect cables, switchgear and connected equipment from damaging fault currents.
Its gG full-range operating characteristic enables the fuse link to protect against both sustained overloads and high-level short circuits. The durable ceramic body and bolted-tag terminal arrangement provide secure mechanical and electrical connections within compatible fuse holders, fuse switches and distribution assemblies.
With a rated current of 200 A and a rated operating voltage of 415 V AC, the Mersen BTF42V200 is suitable for switchboards, industrial control panels, machinery and power distribution applications requiring reliable high-current circuit protection.
