Key Specifications
- Manufactured in accordance with NF EN 60282-1 and UTE C64-210.
- Type-tested by KEMA and EDF Lab Les Renardières.
- Holds EDF/ENEDIS approval for use in the French distribution network.
- High rupture capacity ensures reliable interruption of prospective short-circuit currents up to 12,5kA.
- Current-limiting action clears faults within milliseconds, protecting connected equipment from thermal, electrical, and mechanical stress.
- Low switching overvoltages during interruption protect connected equipment insulation from overvoltage damage.
- Low power dissipation minimizes heat generation during normal operation, preventing excessive temperature rise in the fuse and fuse holder, and extending service life.
- Hermetically sealed end caps offer protection against water and humidity ingress.
- Contact caps are available in aluminum or electrolytic copper with silver or nickel plating, ensuring low and stable contact resistance throughout the product's service life.
- Can be equipped with spring-loaded striker pin for mechanical trip actuation and visual indication of blown fuse. Standard initial striker pin force is 80 N, with an optional high-force version available at 120 N. Thermal striker option available for enhanced overtemperature protection.
- Custom specifications available upon request.
