{"product_id":"qbp508710","title":"Victron Energy MEGA-Fuse, 32V, 5pk","description":"\u003ch6\u003eOverview\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Victron Energy MEGA-fuse 32V is a pack of five high-current DC fuses for protecting low-voltage electrical circuits on boats, vehicles, and off-grid power systems. It is part of Victron Energy’s MEGA fuse range and is used where higher current protection is needed around batteries, inverters, chargers, and DC distribution equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach fuse is rated for systems up to 32V DC, which makes the range suitable for many 12V and 24V marine battery installations when the selected amperage matches the circuit design. Available current ratings run from 60A to 500A, with approximate voltage drop values from 120 mV down to 70 mV depending on the fuse size.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOn board, these fuses are most often used close to the power source to protect heavy DC cabling and connected equipment from short circuits and overloads. The correct rating should be selected to match the cable size, equipment requirements, and the fuse holder used in the installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eKey features\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMEGA fuse format for high-current DC circuit protection in marine electrical systems.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e32V DC rating supports low-voltage battery systems commonly found on 12V and 24V boats.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCurrent ratings across the range cover 60A, 80A, 100A, 125A, 150A, 175A, 200A, 225A, 250A, 300A, 400A, and 500A installations.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eApproximate voltage drop is listed by rating, helping installers account for losses in high-current battery and inverter circuits.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with MEGA fuse holders, including single MEGA fuse holders and Victron modular MEGA fuse holder arrangements.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupplied as a package of five fuses in the selected current rating, useful for service stock, refits, and multi-circuit DC distribution work.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch6\u003eVariants\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis MEGA-fuse 32V range varies by current rating only. Each configuration uses the same MEGA fuse format and 32V DC voltage class, while the amperage changes to suit different cable sizes, equipment loads, and protection requirements.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe available range spans from 60A for smaller protected DC circuits up to 500A for very high-current battery and inverter feeds. The fuse rating should always be matched to the installed cable and the connected equipment, rather than chosen only by the maximum output of the device.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eInstallation and fit\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstall the fuse in a correctly rated MEGA fuse holder, positioned as close as practical to the battery or DC source being protected. This keeps the unprotected cable length short and helps reduce risk if a cable is damaged or a downstream fault occurs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBefore fitting, confirm that the holder, terminals, cable lugs, and surrounding busbar layout are suitable for the selected current rating. High-current DC circuits on boats are sensitive to loose connections, so all contact surfaces should be clean and fasteners should be tightened to the hardware specification used in the installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eMarine use and maintenance\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThese fuses are a practical match for battery banks, inverter feeds, charger circuits, DC distribution panels, and other heavy-load circuits found on cruising boats, fishing boats, and refit projects. They are especially useful where Victron Energy equipment is already part of the onboard DC system.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDuring routine electrical checks, inspect the fuse holder area for heat discoloration, corrosion, loose hardware, or signs of moisture exposure. Replace any fuse only with the same type and the correct amperage for the protected circuit after the cause of the fault has been found.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eWhat’s included\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eFive Victron Energy MEGA-fuses in the selected 32V current rating.\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Victron Energy","offers":[{"title":"60A","offer_id":52581952290997,"sku":"QBP508710-V0","price":15.3,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"80A","offer_id":52581952323765,"sku":"QBP508710-V1","price":15.3,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"100A","offer_id":52581952356533,"sku":"QBP508710-V2","price":15.3,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"125A","offer_id":52581952389301,"sku":"QBP508710-V3","price":15.3,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"150A","offer_id":52581952422069,"sku":"QBP508710-V4","price":15.3,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"175A","offer_id":52581952454837,"sku":"QBP508710-V5","price":19.55,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"200A","offer_id":52581952487605,"sku":"QBP508710-V6","price":15.3,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"225A","offer_id":52581952520373,"sku":"QBP508710-V7","price":19.55,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"250A","offer_id":52581952553141,"sku":"QBP508710-V8","price":15.3,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"300A","offer_id":52581952585909,"sku":"QBP508710-V9","price":15.3,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"400A","offer_id":52581952618677,"sku":"QBP508710-V10","price":15.3,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"500A","offer_id":52581952651445,"sku":"QBP508710-V11","price":15.3,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0977\/8171\/1029\/files\/1336066_qbp508710.jpg?v=1780201702","url":"https:\/\/www.qualityboatparts.com\/products\/qbp508710","provider":"Quality Boat Parts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
