High-voltage automotive fuses maintain stability under vibration and arc stress

January 8, 2026

The ADO fuses from SCHURTER combine fast response to over-currents with strong mechanical resilience, making them ideal for applications in electric vehicle batteries and chargers.

The ADO fuses are available in four mounting formats, one through-hole, and three bolt-on. The versions with screw terminals simplify post-trip replacement, while maintaining low contact resistance and mechanical stability under vibration.  

 

The fuse’s compact 10mm x 38mm ceramic body contains a patented filler formulation. Combined with special curing processes, this ensures that arcs are safely extinguished and secondary arcing is prevented. 

 

The fuse maintains isolation integrity at up to 20kA breaking capacity, resulting in a consistent interruption profile across voltage ratings of 500V, 750V, 850V, and 1,000V dc.
