Description
The Eaton Bussmann 160NHG02B is a 160A NH size 02 Low-Voltage DIN-Type Dual Fuse Link classified under the gL-gG category, engineered to deliver dependable full-range overcurrent protection in demanding electrical installations. Built to meet IEC 60269 and DIN EN 60269 standards, this fuse link combines precision dual fuse element construction with robust blade contact terminals dimensioned to NH size 02 specifications, ensuring secure fitment and repeatable electrical performance across its rated current range.
The 160NHG02B is ideally suited for a wide range of low-voltage power distribution applications including LV switchgear assemblies, main and sub-distribution boards, motor control centres, motor feeder circuits, transformer secondary protection, and outgoing cable feeder protection in both industrial plants and commercial electrical installations. Its 160A rating makes it a preferred choice for panel builders designing systems where reliable overcurrent coordination and cable protection are critical.
As a DIN-type NH fuse link, the 160NHG02B is designed for use in standard NH fuse bases and switch-fuse disconnectors. The dual fuse element design enhances current-limiting performance and ensures consistent pre-arcing and arcing characteristics across operating conditions. With a high breaking capacity, the fuse safely interrupts fault currents while limiting let-through energy, protecting downstream equipment and wiring. Compliance with both IEC 60269 and DIN EN 60269 ensures global acceptance and seamless integration into European and internationally standardised switchgear systems.
Eaton Bussmann is one of the world’s most trusted names in circuit protection, with decades of engineering excellence serving OEMs, panel builders, electrical contractors, and facility managers across industries including manufacturing, energy, infrastructure, and building services. The Bussmann series NH fuse links are recognised for their dimensional accuracy, thermal stability, and consistent time-current characteristics, enabling precise system coordination and maximum uptime in critical electrical installations worldwide.

What does NH size 02 mean in fuse 160NHG02B?
NH size 02 refers to the standardised physical dimension category of the DIN-type fuse link as defined under IEC 60269 and DIN EN 60269. Size 02 specifies the blade contact dimensions, overall body length, and the current rating range the fuse link is designed to handle safely, ensuring correct and interchangeable fitment in compatible NH size 02 fuse bases and switch-disconnectors.
What does class gL-gG mean for the 160NHG02B?
Class gL-gG is a general purpose fuse utilisation category defined by IEC 60269. The prefix g indicates full-range breaking capacity, meaning the fuse can interrupt all overcurrents from the minimum fusing current up to the rated breaking capacity. The gL designation covers protection of cables and conductors, while gG extends this to general load protection including motors, transformers, and distribution circuits, making the 160NHG02B suitable for broad low-voltage protection duties.
What are the typical applications for the Eaton Bussmann 160NHG02B?
The 160NHG02B 160A NH02 dual fuse link is used in low-voltage switchgear panels, main and sub-distribution boards, motor control centres, motor feeder circuits, transformer secondary circuits, and outgoing cable feeder protection in industrial manufacturing facilities, commercial buildings, data centres, and infrastructure projects requiring reliable IEC-compliant overcurrent protection.
Is the 160NHG02B compatible with standard NH fuse holders?
Yes, the 160NHG02B is a DIN-type NH size 02 fuse link designed to fit standard NH size 02 fuse bases, fuse switches, and switch-fuse disconnectors that comply with IEC 60269 and DIN EN 60269 dimensional standards. Always verify that the fuse holder is rated for at least 160A and is compatible with NH size 02 fuse links before installation.
