Product details

The C60H3P40AD is a 40 A, 3-pole miniature circuit-breaker from the Multi9 C60H family, with a D tripping curve (10–14 x In magnetic trip threshold). The 40 A rating at 40 °C and the 10 kA Icu at 440 V AC mean it handles fault currents up to 10 kA at that voltage, which covers most distribution panels in industrial and commercial buildings. For a panel builder, the 35 mm DIN rail mount and 54 mm width (6 x 9 mm pitches) slot into standard distribution boards without surprises.

Deployment context

Snaps onto 35 mm symmetrical DIN rail — standard for panel and enclosure mounting. The tunnel terminals accept up to 25 mm² flexible or 35 mm² rigid, with a 3.5 N.m tightening torque and 14 mm strip length. That's enough lug for a 40 A feeder in a sub-distribution board. Earth-leakage protection requires a separate block — not integrated, so plan for a Vigi add-on if you need RCD.

Frequently asked questions

What is the breaking capacity of C60H3P40AD?

The C60H3P40AD has a rated ultimate breaking capacity (Icu) of 30 kA at 230–240 V AC, 15 kA at 400–415 V AC, and 10 kA at 440 V AC, all per IEC 60947-2. The service breaking capacity (Ics) is 15 kA at 12–440 V AC.

What is the closest alternative to C60H3P40AD?

Within the C60 family, the C60N and C60L variants share the same physical footprint (54 mm wide, DIN rail mount) and tripping curves, but differ in breaking capacity — C60N offers a lower Icu, C60L a higher one. No direct pin-compatible drop-in exists; a parametric swap requires verifying the fault level at the installation point.
