GEWISS Fuses

In electrical panels the fuse is frequently the most overlooked component — yet when it fails under a fault, it can trigger much larger damage or downtime. GEWISS fuses are part of a serious system approach: matched fuse holders, cartridge or cylindrical designs, high breaking capacity, and accessories that ease replacement and service. In practice, when you standardise with one component family you reduce errors, reduce spares complexity and improve maintenance turnarounds.

GEWISS Fuse Holders — Secure Mounting and Safe Access

GEWISS fuse holders provide the mechanical and electrical interface for cartridge and cylindrical fuses on DIN‑rails or panel boards. You’ll select holders that fit the fuse dimension (e.g., 10.3 × 38 mm or 14 × 51 mm), rated current and pole count (1‑pole, 3‑pole, 3P+N). For example, one holder is 10.3×38 mm, rated 690 V AC, 32 A, designed for one module.
From a panel‑builder’s view: the fuse holder must allow tool‑free opening, clear indication of blown condition, and safe isolation. Using GEWISS holders means designers can layout modules with known depths, widths and insulation clearances.

GEWISS Cartridge Fuses & Cylindrical Fuses — Overcurrent Protection Modules

Under the heading of GEWISS cartridge fuses or GEWISS cylindrical fuses, you’ll find fast‑acting and general‑purpose types for board protection. One example: cylindrical fuse type GG, 10.3×38 mm, 500 V AC, 16 A, breaking capacity 120 kA
These fuses are used where you may expect high fault levels or where replacement needs to remain safe and predictable. In installation panels, you’ll typically wire the fuse ahead of a section, then use a prefabricated fuse holder for extraction. That ensures minimal downtime when a fuse is blown.

GEWISS High Breaking Capacity Fuses — Built for Fault Scenarios

In heavy‑duty boards or where fault currents can be high, you’ll specify GEWISS high breaking capacity fuses. For example, the 14×51 mm type GG rated 500 V AC with Iku (breaking capacity) of 80 kA
For your procurement logic: if the fault level at the point of installation exceeds the fuse’s breaking capacity then the fuse holder or the busbar may be damaged during a fault. Using a properly rated GEWISS fuse prevents that scenario.

GEWISS Fuse Links & Accessories — Spares and Maintenance Ready

You’ll also deal with GEWISS fuse links and fuse accessories such as spare cartridges, indicator windows, locking devices and extraction tools. When doing panel maintenance or servicing, these accessories matter. Having a consistent brand–link system simplifies stock, spares and training.
From experience: technicians prefer to keep a drawer of identical GEWISS fuse links, knowing replacement will fit exactly the original holder, with identical ratings and mechanical fit. That consistency reduces field‑errors.

Procurement Insights for Wholesale Buyers

When you’re buying GEWISS fuses and related components in bulk, key parameters include:

• Fuse dimension: e.g., 10.3×38 mm, 14×51 mm — ensure compatibility with existing holder panels.
• Rated current and voltage: match the protection point (e.g., 16 A/500 V, 63 A/500 V)
• Breaking capacity: ensure it meets the system short‑circuit level (e.g., ≥ 80 kA)
• Holder compatibility: number of poles, module width, mounting on EN 50022 DIN‑rails. 
• Stock and packaging: Unless you carry large spares inventory, you might order in multiples or bulk spares; consistent brand means you unify order lines.
• Standardisation across system: If you already use GEWISS fuse holders in your panels, keeping cartridge fuses and links from the same manufacturer helps spare parts, training and documentation.
