VIDEO TRANSCRIPT:
Welcome to G-TV. Today I will be showing you Mersen's H and R series of Fuse blocks.
Mersen, formerly known as Ferraz Shawmut, class H and R Fuse Blocks accommodate all Class H and R 250 and 600V power fuses.  
Class H fuses are cartridge fuses and are intended for general purpose branch circuit, lighting circuit, and the protection of non-inductive equipment like electric ovens and resistance heaters. Galco has available renewable and non-renewable Class H fuses. The renewable fuses allow the user to replace the internal fusible link after the fuse operates.  It is important to note that the minimal 10 kiloAmps interrupting rating is low and could be easily exceed in an industrial plant or commercial building.
For higher demand applications, the non-renewable Class R fuses have a 200 kiloamps interrupting rating.  Class R fuses could be designated as "Current Limiting" or "Time Delay".
The Fluse blocks have a choice of screw, pressure plate, box and special order stud connectors to fit a wide range of stranded or solid copper or aluminum wire. Insulators are either molded glass-filled polycarbonate or phenolic with verified dielectric strength in excess of 2500V. 
The 30, 60 and 100A fuse blocks feature a unique adder block which can be snapped onto 1-, 2- or 3-pole blocks to form multi-pole segmented blocks of as many poles as desired. All fuse clips are made of high conductivity tin-plated copper, with a choice of spring reinforced or non-spring reinforced clips in 30A and 60A. Clips 100A and above are spring reinforced.
All fuse blocks meet the requirements of UL Std. 512. 
Mersen's H and R series of Fuse blocks, along with thousands of other products and services are available at Galco.com.
