DC-rated trip unit for ComPacT NSX 250 DC
The C254TM250D is a thermal-magnetic trip unit from the Schneider Electric ComPacT NSX 250 DC range, designed for DC distribution networks. It carries a 250 A rating at 40 °C and a rated operational voltage of 750 V DC, with 4 protected poles (4D configuration). This is the trip unit only — it mounts into a ComPacT NSX 250 DC fixed circuit breaker frame. The long-time pickup (Ir) adjusts from 0.7 to 1 x In, and the instantaneous pickup (Ii) adjusts from 5 to 10 x In. This gives the specifying engineer flexibility to coordinate with downstream loads without swapping the trip unit.
Standards and approvals for DC duty
The IP40 enclosure protection (IEC 60529) keeps tools and wires out but is not rated for washdown — install inside a panel.
The Class II electrical shock protection means no protective earth connection is required for the trip unit itself.
