Product details

The F breaking capacity code means it delivers 36 kA Icu at 415 V AC, 50/60 Hz, per IEC 60947-2. That's enough to handle most panelboard and sub-feed faults in a 400 V industrial installation without cascading upstream. At 240 V AC it jumps to 85 kA Icu; at 480 V AC (UL 60947-4-1) it still holds 25 kA. No earth-leakage protection built in, so if you need that, you add a Vigi module externally.

Mounts on a backplate — no DIN rail here. That's a standard NSX100F frame size; it shares the same cutout and bus-bar spacing as other NSX100F breakers. Front connections top and bottom, with a 35 mm connection pitch. IP40 front face keeps tools and fingers out; IK07 impact rating handles a knock during installation. Horizontal or vertical mounting, flat on the backplate — no derating needed for orientation.

If your panel ambient runs hotter, you derate per the manufacturer's curve — but 40 °C covers most ventilated enclosures. The thermal-magnetic trip curve (L for overload, I for short-circuit) is fixed, not adjustable, so this is a straight feeder or branch breaker, not a motor-protector where you'd want adjustable magnetic pickup. Electrical durability is 50,000 cycles at 440 V at half rated current, 30,000 at full rated current — that's hundreds of thousands of operations in a distribution role where it rarely opens under load. Mechanical durability is 50,000 cycles.

Overvoltage category III, utilization category A (not current-limiting by design). Relative humidity range 0 to 95%. Standard compliance documentation (declaration of conformity, IEC test reports) is available with the order.

Frequently asked questions

What is the breaking capacity of C10F3TM040 at 415 V?

36 kA Icu at 380/415 V AC, 50/60 Hz, per IEC 60947-2. At 220/240 V it is 85 kA; at 480 V (UL) it is 25 kA.

Where can I buy C10F3TM040 and how is it quoted?

We source this part through independent distribution and quote it to order against an RFQ. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time — submit an RFQ through this listing.

What is the closest alternative to C10F3TM040 in the ComPacT family?

Within the same NSX100F frame, the main difference is the trip unit rating. A 50 A or 63 A TM-D breaker (different order code) shares the same footprint and breaking capacity. If you need adjustable magnetic pickup, step up to the NSX160F frame with a Micrologic trip unit.

What compliance documentation does Schneider provide for C10F3TM040?

Standard documentation includes the declaration of conformity to EN/IEC 60947-2, IEC test reports, and the product certificate. These are supplied with the order or available on request.
