Product details

The MGN60873 is a C60N miniature circuit-breaker from the Schneider Electric Multi9 range, designed for distribution applications. It is a single-pole (1P) thermal-magnetic breaker rated at 50 A at 50 °C per EN/IEC 60947-2, with a C-curve trip characteristic (magnetic tripping limit 8.5 x In ±20 %). The breaking capacity is 10 kA Icu at 240 V AC phase-to-neutral, and 3 kA Icu at 415 V AC, both conforming to EN/IEC 60947-2.

IP20 finger-safe terminals accept 1.5 to 35 mm² rigid or flexible conductors; tunnel-type terminals with a 3.5 N·m tightening torque.

The breaker is suitable for isolation (contact position indicator confirms open/closed state). Service breaking capacity (Ics) is 75 % of Icu: 7.5 kA at 240 V AC, 2.25 kA at 415 V AC. Earth-leakage protection requires a separate block.

Frequently asked questions

What is the breaking capacity of MGN60873?

The MGN60873 has a breaking capacity of 10 kA Icu at 240 V AC phase-to-neutral, and 3 kA Icu at 415 V AC phase-to-neutral, both conforming to EN/IEC 60947-2.

What is the closest alternative to MGN60873 in the same family?

Within the C60N series, the closest alternative would be a different current rating or pole configuration — for example, a 63 A or 2P variant. No pin-compatible drop-in exists; the 50 A 1P C-curve is a specific BOM line. For a second-source gate, verify the required breaking capacity and curve before substituting.

Where can I buy MGN60873 and how is it quoted?

The MGN60873 is sourced through independent distribution and quoted to order against an RFQ. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time — submit an RFQ for a firm price and delivery window.
