Product details

At 415 V the rating drops to 121 kA, and at 690 V it falls to 4.25 kA — the arc energy scales with voltage, so the same mechanical gap can only extinguish so much. For a 63 A frame, this is an exceptionally high interrupting rating; most competitors in this frame size top out around 65–100 kA at 240 V. The ETU320 is a basic electronic trip unit — it provides long-time and short-time protection plus instantaneous, but no ground-fault or communication functions. That makes this breaker a fit for feeder or main protection where you need selectivity coordination downstream, not for branch circuits requiring ground-fault monitoring. The 63 A rating holds steady from 40 °C up to 50 °C ambient; above that it derates linearly to 53.55 A at 70 °C. If your panel runs hot (enclosed switchgear, solar combiner boxes), factor that derating into your load calculation.

The depth of 86 mm clears a standard enclosure with room for rear-mounted busbars.

Frequently asked questions
