The C10B3TM040C is a 3-pole ComPacT NSX100B circuit breaker with a 40 A thermal-magnetic TM-D trip unit. Breaking capacity is 25 kA Icu at 380/415 V AC, 50/60 Hz — that's the fault current it can safely interrupt at typical European line voltage. At 240 V it handles 40 kA, and at 440 V it's still rated for 20 kA. Thermal-magnetic means the overload curve is fixed — no interchangeable rating plugs or electronic adjustment. For a 40 A feeder protecting a motor circuit or a sub-distribution board, this is a straightforward, reliable choice.
Mounting and integration into a panel
The 105 mm width, 161 mm height, and 86 mm depth fit standard ComPacT NSX cutouts. Rated IP40, IK07 — protected against tools and small solids, but not washdown. Suitable for indoor panel installation where the breaker isn't exposed to moisture or dust ingress.
