The thermal-magnetic trip unit (TM-D) provides overload protection via a bimetal strip and short-circuit protection via a solenoid. Category A utilisation means it's not intended for frequent switching of motor loads — it's a distribution breaker, not a motor starter. The IP40 enclosure keeps out tools and small wires but isn't sealed against water — mount it inside a panel.
Deployment context
At 108 mm wide, 137 mm high, and 80 mm deep, it fits standard panel layouts with 12 module pitches of 9 mm. The grey RAL 7016 finish is typical for Schneider's ComPacT range. The toggle control and front-connection terminals make it straightforward for a panel builder to wire and operate. The green flag signals presence of auxiliary contacts — useful for remote status indication.
