Product details

The SOL40B3A160 is a 3-pole moulded-case circuit breaker from Schneider Electric's EasyPact Solar series, built for distribution duty in solar combiner boxes or panelboards. The 800 V AC operational voltage (50/60 Hz) suits it for the higher DC-link or inverter-side voltages common in photovoltaic installations.

Fixed-mount on a backplate with a 40 mm connection pitch. Screw terminals front-connected both top and bottom — no rear bus required. The 120 mm wide × 205 mm tall × 105 mm deep footprint fits standard enclosure backplates; IP20 finger-safe protection means it can sit behind a gland plate without additional shrouding.

Frequently asked questions

What are the key ratings of SOL40B3A160?
