Why Choose the Mersen NH32GTR315KVA-1 Transformer Protection Fuse?
The Mersen NH32GTR315KVA-1 is a DIN NH size 3 gTr fuse-link specifically designed to protect 315 kVA low-voltage distribution transformers. Designed for operation on 400 V AC systems, it delivers dependable transformer protection while withstanding the high magnetising inrush currents that occur during transformer energisation.
The specialised gTr operating characteristic is engineered to match the electrical behaviour of distribution transformers. This provides reliable protection against overloads and short circuits while reducing unnecessary fuse operation during normal transformer energisation. It also offers excellent selectivity with downstream gG fuse-links, helping to maintain system continuity.
Manufactured to the DIN NH standard, the NH32GTR315KVA-1 features a durable ceramic body, blade contacts, isolated gripping lugs and a centre-mounted blown fuse indicator. It is intended for installation in compatible NH fuse bases and transformer switch-fuse assemblies by qualified electrical professionals.
