MERSEN FUSE BTC42V80 80B1C BTC42V80/10

Why Choose the Mersen BTC42V80/10 BS88 gG Fuse Link?

The Mersen BTC42V80/10 is a dependable British Standard BS88 gG fuse link designed to protect industrial and commercial electrical circuits against overload and short-circuit currents. Manufactured by Mersen, it provides effective current limitation to help safeguard cables, conductors, switchgear and connected equipment during electrical fault conditions.

Its gG full-range operating characteristic enables the fuse link to respond to sustained overloads as well as high-level short circuits. The robust ceramic body and bolted-tag terminal arrangement provide secure mechanical and electrical connections within compatible fuse holders, fuse switches and low-voltage distribution assemblies.

With a rated current of 80 A and a rated operating voltage of up to 415 V AC, the Mersen BTC42V80/10 is suitable for control panels, switchboards, industrial machinery and general power distribution systems requiring reliable circuit protection.

Reliable Protection for Electrical Distribution Systems

The Mersen BTC42V80/10 operates by interrupting excessive electrical current before it can cause serious damage to cables, switchgear or connected equipment. During an overload or short circuit, the internal fuse element isolates the affected circuit and limits the amount of damaging fault energy allowed to pass.

Its gG operating characteristic provides protection across the complete current range, making the fuse link suitable for panel builders, electrical contractors and maintenance engineers working with industrial machinery, control equipment and commercial power distribution systems.

Typical Applications

• Industrial control panels.
• Commercial electrical distribution boards.
• Low-voltage switchgear assemblies.
• Fuse switches and switch disconnectors.
• Industrial machinery and automation equipment.
• Cable, conductor and equipment protection.
