4.8kV Ferrule / Medium Voltage Fuses

The 4.8kV Ferrule / Medium Voltage Fuses is part of the Mersen (formerly Ferraz Shawmut) medium voltage fuses line, distributed by Gross Automation.

4.8kV Ferrule / Medium Voltage Fuses

R-rated Motor Starter Fuses - Amp-trap R-rated fuses are current-limiting, high interrupting rating fuses intended for the short-circuit protection of medium voltage motors and motor controllers. R-rated fuses are back up fuses that have a minimum interrupting rating, and must be coordinated with overload relays in combination motor starters. The motor starter manufacturer generally specifies the R-rated fuse size. Amp-trap R-rated fuses are rated 2R to 36R.
