What this 1000 A MCCB covers
The Schneider Electric C100H32AFM is a fixed-mount, manually operated 3-pole MCCB from the ComPacT NS new generation line, rated 1000 A at 50 °C and fitted with a MicroLogic 2.0 A electronic trip unit providing L (long-time overload) and I (instantaneous short-circuit) protection per EN/IEC 60947-2. The LCD display and ammeter measurement let you read load current directly off the front, which saves reaching for a clamp meter during a quick panel walk.
The 1000 A frame with MicroLogic 2.0 A gives you a 20-minute thermal memory — after a trip, it remembers the prior heat profile so re-closing too soon on a still-warm bus won't nuisance-trip again. Utilisation category B means it's designed for distribution, not direct motor starting — the electrical endurance of 2000 cycles at full rated current reflects that. For a motor circuit you'd want a contactor ahead of this breaker.
Dimensions are 327 mm high, 210 mm wide, 147 mm deep — fits standard switchgear cubicle compartments; the IK07 impact rating means it survives the odd dropped tool during installation.
Four red LEDs for fault indication and one yellow for overload give a quick visual on what caused the trip without needing to interrogate the trip unit.
