Key Features
  • High 50kA short-circuit breaking capacity at typical 415VAC system voltage
  • Magnetic-only release suited to motor circuit short-circuit protection
  • 400A frame accommodates a 315A rated current
  • Three-pole configuration for three-phase systems
  • Adjustable instantaneous magnetic trip setting
  • Suitable for fixed installation in switchboards and distribution assemblies
  • Separate overload protection should be provided where required because this model does not provide thermal overload protection
  • Compatible with selected NM8N accessories and auxiliary devices
Professional Installation Requirements
  • Installation, commissioning and adjustment must be performed by a licensed electrician or suitably qualified electrical contractor in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions, AS/NZS 3000 and applicable switchboard requirements. Motor applications require coordinated overload protection and short-circuit protection.
Applications
  • Three-phase motor feeder protection
  • Industrial switchboards and distribution boards
  • Commercial building power distribution
  • Switchboard mains or submain protection where coordinated overload protection is provided separately
  • Industrial machinery and high-fault-level electrical installations
Standards & Compliance
  • AS/NZS IEC 60947.2:2015 — applicable standard for low-voltage circuit-breakers
  • AS/NZS 3000:2018 — electrical installation requirements applicable to installation and wiring
Environmental Benefits
  • Long service life and high operating durability can reduce replacement frequency and associated waste
  • Metallic and polymeric components may be recoverable through appropriate electrical equipment recycling streams
  • Magnetic-only operation avoids the energy consumption associated with electronic trip units
