Description
xFuse Holder for MEGA-Fuse — CIP000100001
The Victron Energy MEGA-fuse holder is a dedicated single-fuse housing designed to accept standard MEGA-format fuses in 12V, 24V and 48V DC systems. It is used wherever a high-current DC circuit requires a secure, accessible fuse point, including battery banks, inverter connections and busbar protection.
Key Features
- Accepts standard MEGA-format fuses, compatible with the full Victron MEGA-fuse range.
- Designed for high-current DC applications including inverter and battery protection circuits.
- Compact housing keeps the fuse accessible for inspection and replacement without disturbing the wider installation.
- Suitable for use across 12V, 24V and 48V DC system voltages.
- Lightweight at 0.11 kg, making it straightforward to mount in confined enclosures or battery compartments.
- Sold individually, allowing installers to specify exactly the number of fuse points required.
Product Overview
MEGA-fuses are a widely used format in automotive and marine DC protection, rated for high continuous currents. This holder provides the correct mechanical and electrical interface for those fuses, ensuring a low-resistance, vibration-resistant connection at the fuse terminals. Using the correct holder matters: an undersized or poorly rated holder introduces resistance and heat at the fuse point, which can cause nuisance tripping or damage to the fuse before a genuine fault occurs.
This holder is the standard Victron-supplied housing for MEGA-fuses used throughout their inverter, charger and battery system installations. It is a straightforward component, but selecting the right holder for the fuse format is an important step in any DC protection design. The holder is sold without a fuse; the appropriate MEGA-fuse rating must be selected separately based on the circuit's continuous current and cable sizing.

Installation Notes
This holder should be installed as close to the positive battery terminal as practically possible to minimise unprotected cable length. Ensure the fuse rating is selected in accordance with the cable cross-section and the maximum continuous current of the connected equipment. DC wiring in battery and inverter systems carries high fault currents; installation should be carried out by a qualified electrician or experienced installer familiar with DC protection requirements.
