This is Victron Energy's six-way fuse holder for MEGA fuses, part number CIP050060000. It brings six fuse positions together on a tin plated copper busbar measuring 3 mm by 18 mm. It is rated for a maximum current of 250 A and a maximum DC voltage of 70 V. Terminals are 8 mm in diameter, the base has a UL 94 V-0 fire rating, and the whole unit weighs 0.45 kg.
Our take
The 250 A maximum current is the stated limit for the whole holder, so the combined draw through all six positions has to stay under it. Only MEGA fuses fit, and the 70 V DC rating sets the voltage ceiling.
From our buying guide
On a boat subpart I covers, each ungrounded output conductor from a battery needs a manually reset, trip-free circuit breaker or fuse within 72 inches of the battery.
Check before you buy:
- On a boat subpart I covers, a continuously energized ungrounded terminal needs a boot, nipple, cap, cover or shield.
- Ignition protection on a charger or switch is the maker's statement, so read what it says and which standard it names.
