Why Choose the ABB OFAA000GG16 16 A HRC DIN Fuse Link?
The ABB OFAA000GG16 is a high-performance DIN-type HRC fuse link designed to provide reliable overload and short-circuit protection for low-voltage electrical circuits. As part of the ABB 311002-Fuses And Fusebases product group, it combines a compact NH000 format with a general-purpose gG operating characteristic for dependable protection in industrial electrical installations.
The OFAA000GG16 uses a gG full-range fuse characteristic, making it suitable for protecting cables, conductors and general distribution circuits against both overload and short-circuit currents. ABB's HRC fuse technology provides high current-limiting capability, allowing fault currents to be interrupted rapidly while helping minimise thermal and mechanical stress on downstream electrical equipment.
With a rated current of 16 A and rated voltage of 690 V AC, the OFAA000GG16 is suitable for a wide range of industrial power distribution and equipment protection applications. Its standard NH000 / DIN size 000 format enables installation in compatible ABB fuse bases, fuse holders and switch-fuse equipment.

Reliable Protection for Electrical Circuits
gG fuse links such as the ABB OFAA000GG16 provide full-range protection against both overload and short-circuit currents. When excessive current flows through the circuit, the fuse element operates to interrupt the fault, helping protect cables, conductors, switching equipment and connected electrical components from potentially damaging thermal and electromechanical effects.
ABB DIN-type HRC fuse links provide high current-limiting performance and rapid fault clearing across different voltage and short-circuit levels. Their replaceable design also supports selective protection schemes, allowing an affected circuit to be isolated while other correctly coordinated parts of an electrical installation remain operational.
Typical Applications
- Industrial low-voltage distribution systems.
- Electrical control panels and switchboards.
- Cable and conductor protection.
- Industrial machinery and production equipment.
- Switch-fuse and fuse-switch assemblies.
- Power distribution and feeder circuits.
- Compatible NH000 DIN fuse bases and holders.
