Mersen 60603J – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What is the SCCR of the Mersen 60603J fuse base, and is it UL Listed?
200 kA short circuit current rating, which is what lets it carry the available fault current in industrial switchgear and motor control centers. It is UL Listed under Guide IZLT, File E52283, CSA Certified under Class 6225, File 32169, and meets UL4248 (formerly UL512).
2) Can I use this Mersen fuse base on a three-phase 480V motor circuit?
Yes. It is a 3-pole base rated 600V AC and 600V DC at 50/60 Hz, so a 480V three-phase feeder or motor circuit is well within its rating, with one pole per phase. Maximum fuse size is 60A.
3) How does the Mersen Class J fuse base mount and terminate?
Direct screw mount to the panel or subpanel, with box-type wire connections torqued to 45 lb-in. No separate mounting kit or rail adapter is involved, so plan hole locations and conductor bend space in the enclosure before you set it.
4) What is the difference between the Mersen 60603J and 60608J fuse bases?
The clip material. 60603J uses tin-plated copper clips; 60608J uses tin-plate aluminum. Both are the same 600V, 60A, 3-pole Class J base otherwise. Copper clips are the usual choice where termination conductors are copper and you want matched metals at the connection.
5) I only need to protect a single-phase two-wire circuit. Is a 3-pole Class J base the right thing to buy?
A 3-pole base gives you three independent fused poles. For a two-wire single-phase circuit you would leave one pole unused, which works but wastes panel space and money. For single-phase work, order a 1-pole or 2-pole Class J base in the same 600V, 60A rating instead.
6) Does the Mersen 60603J come with fuses?
No. It is the fuse base only, the mounting block and clips. The Class J fuses (AJT, A4J or HSJ, sized at or below 60A) are ordered separately, and you choose the amp rating to suit the load you are protecting.
7) Will this fuse base hold up in a hot electrical room or an unheated outbuilding?
Operating and storage temperature tops out at 80 C, with storage down to -25 C. That covers a warm industrial electrical room and cold-weather storage. The body is GFPC (glass-filled polycarbonate type insulating material), which is what carries that temperature rating.
