Fuse cartridge ETI ETI-D02/32A 32 A 400 V gL/gG E18

ETI ETI-D02/32A 32 A 400 V gL/gG E18 is a replaceable fuse cartridge designed for general-purpose overcurrent and short-circuit protection in low-voltage electrical installations. The cartridge is rated for 32 A continuous current and 400 V nominal voltage, and its gL/gG characteristic provides full-range protection for conductors and equipment against prolonged overloads and high short-circuit currents. The E18 dimension makes it compatible with E18-size fuse holders and switch-disconnector combinations in domestic, commercial and light-industrial applications.

Advantages

The fuse cartridge combines a clear gL/gG breaking characteristic with standardized dimensions for easy replacement and reliable protection. Its 32 A rating and 400 V voltage class allow use in typical single-phase and three-phase circuits where a general-purpose protective element is required. The construction ensures predictable melting behaviour under overload and stable interruption under short-circuit conditions, minimizing risk to connected equipment and cabling when used within specified limits.

Suitable for

• Protection of lighting and socket circuits in residential installations
• Overcurrent protection in small commercial distribution panels
• Protection of motors and small machinery in light-industrial settings
• Replacement in E18 fuse holders in switch-disconnectors and fuse blocks

Key specifications

• Continuous current rating: 32 A
• Rated voltage: 400 V
• Breaking characteristic: gL/gG (general-purpose, full-range)
• Physical size: E18 fuse cartridge dimension
• Intended use: overcurrent and short-circuit protection in low-voltage circuits

How to use

Install the fuse cartridge into a compatible E18-size fuse holder or fuse carrier designed for 32 A fuses. Before replacing or installing the cartridge, disconnect power and verify that the circuit is de-energized. Insert the cartridge fully into the holder and ensure a secure mechanical and electrical connection. After replacement, restore power and check the circuit for correct operation. Use only fuses with the same rated current, voltage and characteristic to preserve protection coordination.

Usage recommendations

For safe operation, select the fuse cartridge according to the conductor sizing and coordination requirements of the installation. Do not exceed the rated voltage or current, and replace blown fuses only with identical type and rating. Periodically inspect fuse holders and connections for signs of overheating or corrosion and perform replacements while the circuit is de-energized.
