Product details

The GS1KG3 is a TeSys GS fuse switch disconnector body — a 3-pole, NFC-type unit rated for 125 A at 400 V AC-23B and 100 A at 690 V AC-23B with the terminal cover fitted. It accepts 22 x 58 mm fuse links and mounts on a plate or rail inside a control panel. Breaking capacity is 1000 A at 400 V AC-23B, making capacity 1250 A at the same voltage — these are the fault-interruption and fault-make ratings respectively, and they govern whether this switch holds up under a short-circuit condition on the load side. The 8 kV rated impulse withstand voltage (Uimp) means it survives transient overvoltages common in industrial distribution without flashover.

The AC-23B duty rating (125 A at 400 V, 100 A at 690 V) is the motor-switching category — it covers occasional switching of motors and other highly inductive loads. If your application is purely resistive (heater banks), the AC-21 or AC-1 rating would be higher for the same switch, but this part is not rated in those categories. The DC-23A/B ratings at 100 A, 440 V with two poles in series per phase mean it handles DC motor or solenoid loads, but only when you series the poles to increase arc-gap. The 22 x 58 mm fuse size is a standard European NH (NFC) format — common across most European switch-disconnector lines. If your existing panel uses 22 x 58 mm gG or aM fuse links, these fit directly. The IP20 with terminal cover is touch-safe but not washdown; this lives inside a locked enclosure, not on the factory floor.

Designed and tested to IEC 60269-1, IEC 60269-2, and IEC 60947-3 — the international standards for low-voltage fuses and switch-disconnectors. The fire-resistance test at 850 °C on the fuse cover and 960 °C on the body (per IEC 60695-2-1) means it won't propagate a flame under fault conditions. No UL or CSA listing is on record for this specific variant, so if your panel requires a UL 508 listed switch, this is not the part for that job.

Frequently asked questions

What fuse size does the GS1KG3 accept?

It accepts 22 x 58 mm NFC-type fuse links — the standard European NH format used in most industrial switch-disconnectors.

What are the key current ratings for the GS1KG3?

Rated operational current is 125 A at 400 V AC-23B and 100 A at 690 V AC-23B with terminal cover. Conventional free-air thermal current (Ith) is 125 A at 40 °C. Breaking capacity is 1000 A at 400 V AC-23B.

How do I source the GS1KG3 if it's obsolete?

Since it's obsolete, the only channel is surplus or broker stock. Submit an RFQ and we'll check availability. Be prepared to verify physical fit against your existing panel cutout and busbar spacing, as there is no official replacement with the same footprint.
