These are Victron MEGA fuses rated 500A and 80 V, supplied as a package of 5. Victron gives an approximate voltage drop of 135 mV and a cold resistance of 1.017 mΩ for the part. Victron also lists a fuse holder for MEGA fuses, so check the fuse rating against your cable and holder before fitting.
Our take
The stated figures are a 135 mV approximate voltage drop and 1.017 mΩ cold resistance, so even a 500A MEGA fuse adds a measurable drop to the run. It is rated 80 V, and the package holds 5.
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.
