Product details

40 A MCCB for distribution panels

The TM-D trip unit combines a thermal bimetal for overload protection and a magnetic coil for short-circuit protection; it is a fixed-trip design with no interchangeable rating plugs, so the 40 A is the only trip setting. For a 415 V three-phase supply with a typical transformer impedance, that covers most commercial and light-industrial installations up to a 2000 kVA transformer.

The C11N3TM040B mounts on a backplate — not a DIN rail — via four M6 screws on a 9-module pitch (81 mm wide, 137 mm high, 80 mm deep). The front-facing terminals accept compression lugs or busbars for both line and load connections. The grey (RAL 7016) housing is standard for Schneider's ComPacT NSXm range and matches other panel components in the same finish. Operating altitude is 2000 m without derating, 5000 m with derating — relevant for high-altitude sites where air density affects arc extinction.

Frequently asked questions

What is the breaking capacity of C11N3TM040B?

50 kA at 415 V AC (Performance Level N) per IEC 60947-2. This is the maximum fault current the breaker can safely interrupt at that voltage.

What trip unit does C11N3TM040B use?

A TM-D thermal-magnetic trip unit, fixed at 40 A (at 40 °C). No interchangeable rating plugs — the trip setting is the breaker's rated current.

Where can I buy C11N3TM040B?

This part is sourced to order against an RFQ through independent distribution channels. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at the time of quotation.

What standards does C11N3TM040B comply with?

EN/IEC 60947-2 for low-voltage switchgear and controlgear. It also carries an IP40 enclosure rating (IK07 impact) and is rated for isolation per the same standard.
