Description
Overview
The Eaton Bussmann DEO200 is a 200 A, 415 V AC bolted-type BS88 fuse link engineered for general-purpose low voltage circuit protection in industrial and commercial power distribution systems. Rated to Class gG under IEC 60269-2 and BS88 Part 2, it provides full-range overcurrent protection with an 80 kA breaking capacity, making it suitable for the most demanding fault conditions encountered in Indian LV installations. Its A4 BS Size with offset tag closed slot construction ensures straightforward replacement in compatible BS88 fuse carriers and bases.

Applications & Selection Guide
The DEO200 is the go-to choice for panel builders and electrical contractors who require dependable 200 A overcurrent protection in 415 V AC three-phase LV systems. Its Class gG rating means it is designed to protect both cables and equipment across the full overload and short-circuit current range — making it appropriate for feeder circuits in main distribution boards (MDBs), sub-distribution boards (SDBs), and motor control centres (MCCs) where fault energy can be high.
In the Indian industrial context, this fuse link is commonly specified in sectors such as cement, steel, textiles, pharmaceuticals, food processing, automotive, and building services — anywhere that LV switchgear is built to IEC standards and BS88 fuse bases are already installed. Its 80 kA breaking capacity comfortably covers the prospective fault currents seen at secondary bus bars of distribution transformers commonly used in Indian industrial substations.
When selecting the DEO200, verify that your fuse base or carrier is rated for BS Size A4 with an offset tag closed slot interface and is suitable for 200 A continuous current at 415 V AC. Pair with appropriately rated BS88 fuse carriers, fuse holders, and DIN-rail or panel mounting accessories for a complete, standards-compliant protection assembly.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does Class gG mean for the Eaton Bussmann DEO200 fuse link?
Class gG (general purpose, full-range) indicates that the DEO200 is designed to protect electrical circuits against both overload currents and short-circuit currents across its entire rated current range. Unlike back-up fuses that only clear at high fault currents, a gG fuse will reliably open under sustained overloads as well, protecting downstream cables and equipment in LV switchgear panels and distribution boards.
Is the DEO200 suitable for use in standard Indian 415 V AC three-phase distribution systems?
Yes. The Eaton Bussmann DEO200 is rated at 415 V AC, which directly matches the standard three-phase low voltage supply voltage used in Indian industrial and commercial installations. Its compliance with IEC 60269-2 and BS88 Part 2 ensures it meets the protection requirements accepted by Indian electrical consultants, auditors, and project specifications.
What BS Size and tag type does the DEO200 use, and which fuse bases are compatible?
The DEO200 uses BS Size A4 with an offset tag closed slot configuration. It is compatible with BS88 fuse carriers and bases designed for the A4 size with an offset tag closed slot interface. Always verify the fuse base manufacturer’s datasheet to confirm dimensional and electrical compatibility before installation, or contact Shansen Enterprises for guidance on sourcing matched accessories in Coimbatore.
What is the breaking capacity of the DEO200, and is it sufficient for industrial applications in India?
The DEO200 has a breaking capacity of 80 kA. This is well above the prospective short-circuit currents typically encountered at the secondary busbars of distribution transformers in most Indian industrial and commercial installations, where fault levels commonly range from 25 kA to 50 kA at 415 V. The 80 kA rating makes the DEO200 suitable for use close to transformer LV terminals and in high-fault-energy panel environments.
Does the Eaton Bussmann DEO200 carry any compliance certifications for panel export projects?
Yes. The DEO200 is CE Marked, RoHS Compliant, and IEC Rated. CE Marking confirms conformity with applicable European directives, which is often required for panels exported to European markets or built to international project specifications. RoHS compliance satisfies environmental regulations restricting hazardous substances. IEC rating under IEC 60269-2 is the internationally recognised benchmark for LV fuse performance, accepted by most global project specifications and EPC contractors operating in India.
