Why Choose the Mersen NH4AM69V1000-8 Motor Protection Fuse Link?
The Mersen NH4AM69V1000-8 is a heavy-duty DIN NH aM fuse link engineered to provide dependable short-circuit protection for high-power motor circuits and industrial electrical equipment. Manufactured by Mersen, this NH4 fuse link is specifically designed to tolerate the high inrush currents associated with motor starting while delivering rapid interruption of high prospective fault currents.
As part of the trusted Mersen NH aM 690 V AC fuse series, this fuse link incorporates live gripping lugs and a top operating indicator, enabling faster identification of an operated fuse and safer replacement using an approved NH fuse puller. Its robust ceramic body and silver-plated copper blade terminals provide excellent mechanical strength and long service life in demanding industrial environments.
With a rated current of 1000 A, a 690 V AC operating voltage and a high 120 kA breaking capacity, the NH4AM69V1000-8 is ideal for motor control centres, industrial switchboards, process plants and heavy-duty machinery requiring reliable motor short-circuit protection.

Reliable Short-Circuit Protection for Industrial Motors
The Mersen NH4AM69V1000-8 incorporates an aM operating characteristic specifically developed for motor protection. It allows normal motor starting currents to pass without nuisance operation while rapidly clearing severe short-circuit faults that could otherwise damage motors, cables, contactors and switchgear. As with all aM fuse links, it should be used alongside suitable thermal overload protection.
Its high current-limiting capability helps reduce thermal stress and electrodynamic forces throughout the electrical installation, improving equipment protection and reducing downtime following electrical faults.
Typical Applications
- Motor control centres (MCCs).
- Industrial motor protection.
- Heavy-duty manufacturing equipment.
- Industrial switchboards.
- Pumps, compressors and conveyors.
- Mining, utilities and process automation systems.
