Cylindrical fuse link GL 1 A 10.3 x 38 HPC 013301

LEGRAND cylindrical fuse link - reliable protection for electrical circuits

The LEGRAND cylindrical fuse link with a rated current of 1A and a size of 10x38 mm is a professional solution providing effective protection for electrical installations against the effects of overloads and short circuits. Made of high-quality ceramics, it features gG operating characteristics (general purpose protection), making it ideal for protecting cables, wires, and standard electrical devices.

Operating parameters and technical characteristics

The device operates in a wide voltage range of AC/DC up to 500V, ensuring universal application in various installations. The rated current of 1A allows for precise protection of circuits requiring a low trip threshold. The operating frequency is within the range of 42-62 Hz, which covers standard power grid frequencies.

The gG characteristic (formerly gL) provides protection across the full range of currents - from small overloads to large short-circuit currents. The HPC (High Breaking Capacity) symbol indicates a high breaking capacity of 120 kA, which guarantees safe circuit interruption even at very high short-circuit currents.

Power loss at the rated current is only 0.45W, which minimizes energy losses during normal operation.

Operating conditions and environmental resistance

The fuse link maintains full functionality at operating temperatures from -25°C to +40°C, allowing for installation in both heated and unheated rooms. A storage temperature range of -40°C to +70°C allows for long-term storage without the risk of parameter degradation.

The ceramic construction provides excellent resistance to environmental conditions and stability of electrical parameters over time. The absence of an indicator simplifies the design and reduces the risk of mechanical damage.

Normative compliance and areas of application

The product meets the requirements of international standards NF EN/IEC 60269, NF HD/IEC 60269, and national standards NFC 60-200, confirming its high quality and safety of use. It holds Bureau Veritas certificates, guaranteeing compliance with all technical requirements.

It is ideally suited for domestic and office installations for protecting lighting and control circuits, as well as in industrial automation where precise protection of low-current control circuits is required. The standard 10x38 mm size ensures compatibility with most popular fuse holders available on the market.

Due to its high breaking capacity, it finds particular use in systems requiring maximum safety - distribution boards, control panels, and installations where a failure could lead to serious financial losses or safety hazards.
