Victron Energy MEGA-fuse 500A/80V (Package of 5 pcs) Fuse CIP138500020

The Victron Energy CIP138500020 MEGA-Fuse is a high-current 500A, 80V DC bolt-down fuse designed to provide overcurrent protection for compatible battery and DC electrical systems. Its MEGA-format construction provides a robust, replaceable circuit-protection solution for high-current DC applications.

With its 500A current rating and 80V DC voltage rating, this fuse is suited to appropriately engineered battery, inverter, charging, and DC distribution circuits requiring substantial current capacity. Victron Energy's current product documentation identifies CIP138500020 specifically as the MEGA-fuse 500A/80V model. 

Package Quantity: Five (5) Victron Energy MEGA-Fuse 500A/80V fuses.

Key Technology

• 500A Current Rating
  Provides 500-amp overcurrent protection for compatible high-current DC circuits when correctly selected according to conductor ampacity, equipment requirements, and overall system design.

• 80V DC Rating
  Rated for circuits operating at up to 80V DC, supporting appropriately designed low-voltage battery and DC power systems.

• High-Current MEGA Fuse Format
  Uses the MEGA bolt-down fuse format for robust overcurrent protection in high-current battery feeds and DC distribution circuits.

• Bolt-Down Installation
  The MEGA fuse design provides a secure mechanical and electrical interface when installed in a compatible fuse holder, making it suitable for high-current DC connections.

• Replaceable Overcurrent Protection
  Provides a replaceable protective element designed to interrupt excessive current and help protect properly sized conductors and connected DC equipment.

• MEGA Fuse Holder Compatibility
  Designed for installation with compatible MEGA fuse-holder solutions. Victron offers single and modular MEGA fuse holders as part of its DC distribution range.

• High-Capacity DC Protection
  The 500A rating makes this model suitable for appropriately engineered circuits carrying substantially higher currents than lower-rated MIDI and MEGA fuse configurations.

Best Uses

• High-Current Battery Systems
  Suitable for protecting properly sized conductors in compatible battery systems where system design calls for 500A overcurrent protection.

• Solar & Energy Storage Systems
  Can be incorporated into appropriately engineered solar and battery-storage DC circuits requiring a high-current 500A protective fuse.

• 12V, 24V & Compatible 48V Systems
  Suitable for compatible nominal 12V, 24V, and 48V systems provided the circuit voltage and all associated equipment remain within their applicable ratings.

• High-Power Inverter Circuits
  Can be used in appropriately designed inverter and inverter/charger DC circuits where the equipment specifications, cable sizing, and protection requirements call for a 500A fuse.

• DC Distribution Systems
  Provides overcurrent protection for high-current DC distribution circuits where properly sized conductors and connected equipment require a 500A fuse.

• High-Current Battery Charging Circuits
  Suitable for compatible charging and battery circuits when the electrical design and connected equipment specify 500A overcurrent protection.
