Why Choose the Mersen NH00GG40V160 NH Fuse-Link?
The Mersen NH00GG40V160 is a high-performance NH size 00 gG fuse-link designed to provide full-range protection against overload and short-circuit currents in industrial electrical installations. Rated at 160 A and 400 V AC, it is suitable for protecting cables, conductors, switchgear and power distribution equipment in demanding commercial and industrial environments.
Its gG utilisation category provides comprehensive protection throughout the fuse-link's operating range. The NH00GG40V160 responds to sustained overload currents and severe short-circuit faults, while its current-limiting operation helps reduce thermal and electrodynamic stress on downstream equipment.
Manufactured to the DIN NH standard, the fuse-link features a durable ceramic body, silver-plated copper blade contacts, live gripping lugs and a convenient double indication system. Its compact NH00 construction enables installation in compatible NH fuse bases, fuse-switch disconnectors and industrial distribution assemblies.
Key Advantages
- Provides full-range overload and short-circuit protection.
- 160 A rated current for industrial distribution circuits.
- 400 V AC rated voltage for low-voltage installations.
- 100 kA AC breaking capacity for dependable fault interruption.
- Current-limiting operation helps reduce damaging fault energy.
- Double indication system provides rapid fuse status identification.
- Standard NH00 format fits compatible industrial fuse equipment.
Key Features
- Mersen NH gG 400 V fuse-link series.
- NH00 fuse size.
- 160 A rated current.
- 400 V AC rated voltage.
- gG full-range operating characteristic.
- 100 kA AC breaking capacity.
- Double visual indication system.

- High-strength ceramic insulating body.
Reliable Full-Range Circuit Protection
The Mersen NH00GG40V160 protects industrial electrical systems by interrupting both prolonged overload currents and high prospective short-circuit faults. Its full-range gG characteristic makes it suitable for protecting cables, conductors and electrical equipment without requiring a separate fuse-link for different fault conditions.
During a severe fault, the fuse-link limits the peak current and let-through energy reaching downstream components. This helps minimise damage to switchgear, busbars, cables and connected machinery while supporting reliable operation within correctly designed electrical systems.
Typical Applications
- Industrial power distribution boards.
- Main switchboards and electrical panels.
- Cable and conductor protection.
- Machine control and automation panels.
- Fuse-switch disconnectors.
- Commercial and industrial low-voltage installations.
