Product details

The C1042G100 is a MicroLogic 2.2 G electronic trip unit for the ComPacT NSX100...250 range, rated 100 A at 40 °C. It provides LSoI protection — long-time overload (L), short-time short-circuit with fixed delay (So), and instantaneous short-circuit (I) — tailored for generator applications. The 4-pole design handles 3D + N/2, 4D, or 3D neutral configurations.

The long-time pickup (Ir) is adjustable from 40 to 100 A in nine steps, so you dial in the generator's full-load amp rating, not a fixed value. Short-time pickup (Isd) adjusts from 1.5 to 9 x Ir, giving you selectivity headroom downstream. Instantaneous pickup (Ii) is fixed at 1500 A, which clears hard faults fast.

This is the trip unit only — it mounts into a ComPacT NSX100, NSX160, or NSX250 molded-case circuit breaker frame. The breaker itself is fixed-mount, 4-pole, with neutral on the left.

Frequently asked questions

Who supplies C1042G100 and how is it quoted for volume purchases?

The C1042G100 is sourced through independent distribution channels. It is quoted to order against an RFQ — submit a request with quantity and target delivery window, and availability plus current pricing are confirmed at quote time.

What is C1042G100's listed range on this component line?

The C1042G100 belongs to the ComPacT NSX100...250 range, meaning it fits breaker frames rated 100 A, 160 A, or 250 A.

What is C1042G100's listed standards on this component line?

The C1042G100 is certified to EN/IEC 60947-2, the standard for low-voltage circuit breakers and switchgear. This covers the trip unit's performance under fault conditions, coordination, and type-testing.

What compliance documentation does this brand provide for C1042G100?

Schneider Electric provides the standard compliance documentation for the ComPacT NSX range: the trip unit carries EN/IEC 60947-2 certification, and the broader product family typically includes CE marking, UKCA, and EAC declarations. Specific RoHS and REACH declarations are available through Schneider's documentation portal using the product code C1042G100.
