Applications & Selection Guide
The CEO80 fuse link is suited to general-purpose overcurrent protection duties in low voltage electrical installations operating on 415 V AC three-phase systems — the standard supply voltage across Indian industrial, commercial, and infrastructure projects. Typical installations include main and sub-distribution boards, motor control centres (MCCs), industrial switchgear panels, and feeder circuits in factories, manufacturing plants, data centres, and utility substations.
As a Class gG fuse, the CEO80 provides full-range protection, meaning it will safely interrupt currents from the minimum-fusing current up to its 80 kA breaking capacity. This makes it appropriate for protecting cables, busbars, and equipment where both sustained overloads and prospective short-circuit currents must be addressed. The BS Size A4 bolted type form factor ensures compatibility with standard BS88 fuse carriers and bases widely used in Indian panel construction.
Industries across Coimbatore and Tamil Nadu that commonly rely on BS88 gG fuse links include textile machinery, pump and motor OEMs, automotive component manufacturing, food processing, and heavy engineering. Panel builders specifying the CEO80 can be confident of consistent performance, ready availability, and full compliance with IEC 60269-2 — a requirement increasingly enforced on industrial projects and government infrastructure contracts across India.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does Class gG mean for the Eaton Bussmann CEO80 fuse link?
Class gG denotes a general-purpose, full-range fuse that can interrupt all currents from its minimum fusing current up to its rated breaking capacity — in the CEO80’s case, 80 kA. It provides protection against both sustained overloads and short-circuit faults, making it suitable for protecting cables and equipment in distribution and motor circuits operating at 415 V AC.
What is the breaking capacity of the CEO80 and why does it matter?
The CEO80 has a breaking capacity of 80 kA. This means the fuse can safely interrupt fault currents up to 80 kA without rupturing or causing collateral damage to the enclosure or connected equipment. For industrial installations in India where prospective short-circuit currents at distribution boards can be significant, selecting a fuse with adequate breaking capacity is a critical safety requirement under IS/IEC standards.
Is the Eaton Bussmann CEO80 suitable for use in Indian 415 V AC three-phase systems?
Yes. The CEO80 is rated at 415 V AC, which directly matches the standard three-phase supply voltage used in Indian industrial and commercial installations. It is compliant with BS88 Part 2 and IEC 60269-2, both of which are widely accepted and specified on Indian electrical projects. Its CE mark and IEC certification further confirm its suitability for use in compliant low voltage distribution systems across India.
What fuse carrier or base is compatible with the CEO80 fuse link?
The CEO80 is a bolted type fuse link with an offset tag closed slot, designated BS Size A4. It requires a matching BS88 A4 fuse carrier or fuse base designed for the bolted type, offset tag configuration. When specifying replacement or new installations, ensure the fuse base is rated for at least 415 V AC and 80 A. Contact Shansen Enterprises for guidance on compatible Eaton Bussmann fuse carriers available in India.
Can the CEO80 be used for motor protection applications?
The CEO80 is a Class gG fuse, which provides general-purpose full-range protection and is appropriate for feeder and distribution circuit protection in motor control centres. However, for direct motor branch circuit protection requiring high inrush current tolerance, a Class aM (motor protection) fuse is typically preferred. The CEO80 is well suited to protecting the incoming supply cables and distribution circuits feeding motor control panels. Please consult Shansen Enterprises’ technical team to confirm the correct fuse class for your specific motor protection coordination requirement.
