Transformer-protection circuit breaker, size S00
The Siemens SIRIUS 3RV2811-1ED10 is a circuit breaker in the S00 frame, designed specifically for transformer protection and listed to UL 489 / CSA C22.2 No.5. Breaking capacity reaches 100 kA at 240 V AC and 400 V AC, 100 kA at 500 V AC, and 4 kA at 690 V AC — the 690 V figure drops further to 6 kA for AC operation. This SCCR headroom suits transformer primary-side protection where fault currents can exceed 50 kA on a stiff utility feed. Backup fuse coordination is specified: gG 32 A at 400 V and 500 V, gG 25 A at 690 V. The rated operational voltage spans 20 to 690 V, covering most low-voltage transformer primaries up to 480/600 V class.
Clearance requirements: 70 mm upward and downward, 30 mm to the side, zero forward or backward. The screwdriver shaft requires 5 to 6 mm diameter, Pozidriv size 2 tip. Main contact screws are M4.
