Why Choose the Mersen A3T800 Class T Fuse?
The Mersen A3T800 is a heavy-duty Class T current-limiting fuse engineered to provide exceptional protection for industrial electrical systems operating under high current conditions. Part of the trusted Mersen Amp-Trap 2000 A3T series, this fast-acting fuse offers outstanding short-circuit protection while maintaining a compact footprint for modern power distribution equipment.
Rated at 800 A with a 300 V AC voltage rating, the A3T800 delivers rapid fault interruption to minimise damage caused by overloads and short circuits. Its current-limiting characteristics significantly reduce peak fault current and let-through energy, helping to protect expensive switchgear, busbars, cables and downstream electrical equipment.
Designed for demanding industrial environments, the A3T800 is suitable for installation in switchboards, panelboards, load centres, disconnect switches and other high-power distribution systems. Its unique Class T dimensions prevent substitution with lower performance fuse types, ensuring safe and reliable circuit protection.
