Sold in a pack of five, it is suited to professional installers who need reliable overcurrent protection on marine, vehicle, and off-grid solar installations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e175A rated current with a 32V DC maximum voltage rating, suitable for 12V and 24V battery systems.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMEGA-fuse format provides a high interrupt capacity, protecting against short-circuit damage in high-current DC applications.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBolt-down terminal design ensures a secure, low-resistance connection when used with a compatible MEGA fuseholder.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePack of 5 fuses, making it practical for multi-circuit installations or stocking spares on site.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact form factor fits standard MEGA fuseholders, which are widely used across Victron and third-party DC distribution equipment.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGTIN: 8719076016618, confirming genuine Victron Energy product.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eProduct Overview\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMEGA-fuses are a well-established format in DC electrical protection, commonly specified for battery-to-inverter cabling, busbar protection, and main supply feeds in mobile and off-grid systems. The 175A rating sits between the lighter 125A and heavier 200A options, making it appropriate for mid-range inverters and high-current DC loads where cable protection is critical.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAt 32V maximum, this fuse is rated for use in 12V and 24V nominal battery systems. It is not suitable for 48V systems, where a higher-voltage-rated fuse must be used. The bolt-down connection style used by MEGA-fuses requires a dedicated MEGA fuseholder, sold separately. Correct torque on the terminal bolts is important to maintain a reliable, low-resistance joint and prevent localised heating.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFuses in high-current DC circuits should be sized to protect the cable, not the load. A 175A fuse is typically paired with cable rated at or near that current capacity. Oversizing the fuse relative to the cable defeats the purpose of the protection and is a common installation error worth flagging to end users.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSKU: CIP136175010\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRated current: 175A\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMaximum voltage: 32V DC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFuse type: MEGA\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePack quantity: 5 pieces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWeight: 0.05 kg (pack)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGTIN: 8719076016618\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eApplications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBattery-to-inverter cable protection in 12V and 24V off-grid solar systems.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMain fuse protection on DC distribution boards in marine and narrowboat installations.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eVehicle conversion and motorhome electrical systems with high-current DC loads.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBusbar and battery bank protection in multi-battery off-grid setups.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eReplacement fuses for existing MEGA fuseholder installations.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eWhat Is Included\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e5 x MEGA-fuse 175A\/32V\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese fuses require a compatible MEGA fuseholder, sold separately. Ensure the fuseholder bolt terminals are tightened to the manufacturer's specified torque to avoid resistance heating at the joint. This fuse is rated to 32V DC maximum and must not be used in 48V battery systems. DC electrical work on battery systems carrying high currents should be carried out by a qualified electrician or experienced installer. Always isolate the battery before replacing fuses.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Victron Energy","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47435106976078,"sku":"CIP136175010","price":12.73,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0796\/3698\/8238\/files\/mega-fuse-175a32v-package-of-5-pcs-cip136175010-861923.jpg?v=1747934627","url":"https:\/\/voltaconsolar.com\/products\/victron-mega-fuse-175a-32v-pack-of-5","provider":"VoltaconSolar","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
