On-board fuse boxes are installed on Metro, trains, catenary less tramway and electric buses. They are a mandatory critical components of protection. In association with the Current Collector Devices or the pantographs, the Fuse boxes house the 750VDC, 1.500VDC and 2.000 VDC fuses to protect the infeed of the current on-board. Mersen offer a large range of isolated Fuse boxes with the possibility to equip them with advanced technical capabilities integrating smart and connected solutions to enable you to pilot and anticipate your maintenance or energy measurement. Mersen on-board fuse boxes are designed to be very compact and adaptable to your configurations. They can be converted to connection boxes for connecting electrical cables (see separately). Mersen have a large library of existing fuse boxes solutions but also Mersen can design, create and customized the box for your application adapting its shape, dimensions and cable connections. They are reliable and offer low maintenance with a whole life support. They are designed to withstand and answer the shock and vibration and also fire and smoke international regulations. As they are at the nearest point from the energy source, the fuses boxes are ideally positioned to integrate innovative and connected functions like the Energy measurement. • Measure the real consumed energy • Measure the re-injected energy to the grid when braking • Teach the eco driving to the train drivers • Check the voltage value on the catenary (sub station) • For security reasons, house a Voltage detection device • The micro switches of the fuses (fuse melting information)
