What this 400 A ComPacT NSX carries
The Schneider Electric C40R42D400 is a ComPacT NSX400R molded-case circuit breaker with a 400 A MicroLogic 2.3 electronic trip unit, rated for distribution duty in 4-pole configuration. The MicroLogic 2.3 provides LSI protection: long-time overload (L), short-time short-circuit with fixed delay (So), and instantaneous short-circuit (I).
Breaking capacity across voltage levels
At 220/240 V and 380/415 V the breaker holds 200 kA Icu; at 440 V it holds 200 kA; at 500 V it derates to 80 kA; at 525 V to 65 kA; and at 660/690 V to 45 kA.
Mounts on a backplate in horizontal or vertical orientation, flat against the mounting surface. Front connections on both line and load sides. The 185 mm width, 255 mm height, and 110 mm depth fit standard distribution panel layouts. IP40 enclosure protection handles indoor panel environments; IK07 impact rating covers incidental tool strikes during maintenance.
Compliance and approvals
Designed to EN/IEC 60947-2, pollution degree 3, overvoltage category III. The electronic trip unit is rated 400 A at 40 °C. Electrical durability is 12,000 cycles at 440 V at half rated current, 6,000 cycles at full rated current; mechanical durability is 15,000 cycles.
