MERSEN FUSE 559P CP GLD 55.259 20 55GD55V20P

Why Choose the Mersen V081484 Medium Voltage Cylindrical Fuse?

The Mersen V081484, also identified as 36GD55V20P, is a medium voltage cylindrical fuse-link designed to provide dependable overcurrent and short-circuit protection for specialist electrical distribution systems. With a 20 A rated current and a 5.5 kV AC rated voltage, it is suitable for installations requiring reliable current-limiting protection at medium voltage.

This Mersen fuse is identified by the manufacturer designation 559P CP GLD 55.259 20 and may also be referenced as 55GD55V20P. Its robust cylindrical construction supports reliable operation in industrial, infrastructure and utility applications where electrical faults must be interrupted quickly to reduce damage to connected equipment.

The V081484 features a cylindrical body measuring approximately 55 × 259 mm and incorporates a striker mechanism. The striker can provide mechanical indication when the fuse has operated and may actuate compatible switchgear or signalling equipment. This makes the fuse suitable for transformer protection, public lighting networks, medium voltage panels and demanding industrial installations, including chemical and salt-processing environments.

Reliable Protection for Medium Voltage Equipment

Medium voltage fuse-links protect electrical systems by interrupting the circuit when excessive current or a short-circuit fault occurs. Their current-limiting action helps reduce the amount of damaging energy allowed to pass through the circuit, protecting transformers, conductors, switchgear and connected equipment.

The Mersen V081484 combines a 20 A current rating, 5.5 kV AC voltage capability and integrated striker in a durable cylindrical format. When the fuse operates, the striker can provide visible indication or interact with compatible switching and monitoring equipment, helping maintenance personnel identify faults quickly.
