The Schneider 4P 400H 400A is a 4-pole molded case circuit breaker (MCCB) from the NSX series, designed for overload and short-circuit protection in four-wire, three-phase electrical systems.
Specifications:
Type: Molded Case Circuit Breaker (MCCB)
Number of Poles: 4P (4 poles) – Suitable for four-wire, three-phase systems (including neutral)
Current Rating: 400A
Frame Size: 400H (indicating the high-capacity frame suitable for high current applications)
Rated Voltage: Typically 415V (for three-phase systems with neutral)
Rated Frequency: 50/60 Hz
Tripping Characteristics:
Thermal Protection: Provides overload protection by disconnecting the circuit when the current exceeds the rated value for an extended period.
Magnetic Protection: Provides instantaneous disconnection in the event of a short circuit, ensuring the protection of the circuit and preventing damage to equipment.
Adjustable Thermal Settings: The thermal settings can be adjusted to suit various applications and load requirements, allowing for flexible protection.
Breaking Capacity: Typically 50 kA at 415V (maximum fault current the breaker can safely interrupt)
Protection Features:
Overload Protection: Disconnects the circuit when the current exceeds the rated value for a prolonged period, preventing damage to wiring and connected devices.
Short-Circuit Protection: Provides instantaneous protection when a short-circuit occurs, ensuring that damage to the system is minimized.
Manual Reset: After tripping, the breaker can be manually reset once the fault condition has been cleared.
