Product details

Motor circuit breaker for 32 A motor branches

The Schneider Electric GV3P326 is a TeSys Deca motor circuit breaker rated 32 A continuous, sized for a 15 kW motor at 400/415 V AC 50/60 Hz.

Breaking capacity and fault coordination

For a 400 V panel the 100 kA figure gives generous SCCR headroom; the integrator should verify the assembly SCCR against the downstream component ratings. The utilisation category is AC-3 for motor switching, and the breaker is also Category A for general distribution use.

The connection pitch is 17.5 mm without spreaders, and the tightening torque on lugs/ring terminals is 6 N·m. The IP20 enclosure suits clean indoor panels; the IK09 mechanical robustness rating means it withstands accidental tool impacts during commissioning. Operating altitude is rated to 3000 m without derating.

Durability and isolation capability

Rated for 50,000 electrical cycles under AC-3 at 415 V and 50,000 mechanical cycles — this covers a typical motor start/stop duty for a conveyor or pump over many years. Power dissipation is 8 W per pole, which should be factored into enclosure thermal calculations if multiple units are ganged.

Frequently asked questions

What motor power does the GV3P326 cover?

At 400/415 V AC 50/60 Hz it covers 15 kW; at 500 V AC it covers 18.5 kW; at 690 V AC it covers 22 kW. These ratings assume a three-phase induction motor under AC-3 duty.

What breaking capacity does this breaker offer?

It delivers 100 kA Icu at 230/240 V and 400/415 V AC, 50 kA at 440 V, 12 kA at 500 V, and 6 kA at 690 V, all per IEC 60947-2.

What compliance documentation is available for the GV3P326?

The breaker carries declarations of conformity to EN/IEC 60947-2, EN/IEC 60947-4-1, UL 60947-4-1, and CSA C22.2 No 60947-4-1. RoHS and REACH documentation is available from the manufacturer's compliance portal.
