Why Choose the Mersen NH3GTR50KVA-8 Transformer Fuse-Link?
The Mersen NH3GTR50KVA-8 is a high-performance DIN NH size 3 gTr transformer protection fuse-link designed specifically for protecting low voltage transformers against short-circuit faults and overload conditions. Rated for 400 V AC, it is optimised for the protection of 50 kVA distribution transformers and is ideal for industrial power distribution systems, transformer panels and electrical substations.
Its specialised gTr utilisation characteristic has been developed specifically for transformer protection, providing superior coordination with transformer inrush currents while maintaining fast fault interruption during genuine short-circuit conditions. This improves system selectivity compared with standard gG fuse-links.
The NH3GTR50KVA-8 features a robust ceramic body, top indicator, live gripping lugs and standard NH size 3 blade contacts. It is intended for installation in compatible NH fuse bases and fuse-switch disconnectors by qualified electrical professionals.
