Product details

80 A D-curve MCB for motor and transformer circuits

The D-curve (10–20× In magnetic trip) avoids nuisance tripping on startup surges, so this is the right choice for a motor branch circuit or a large power supply feed, not a general lighting panel.

Snaps onto DIN rail or accepts screw fixing — both methods are rated, so you can use whichever your panel shop prefers. At 6 modular width units (108 mm wide), it occupies six 18 mm slots on the rail. The tunnel terminals top and bottom accept conductors up to the usual MCB range; position of the supply cord is any, so line/load orientation is flexible.

Environmental and service conditions

Shock and vibration resistance per IEC 60068-2-27 and -6 are specified, so it holds up on machinery subject to moderate impacts.

Frequently asked questions

Will 5SP4480-8 drop into a panel specified around 5SP4380-7 without rewiring?

Both are 4-pole SENTRON 5SP series MCBs on the same DIN-rail footprint with tunnel terminals, so mechanical fit is identical. The difference is the rating: 5SP4480-8 is 80 A D-curve, while 5SP4380-7 is a different current/curve variant. If the panel was wired for a lower-rated MCB, the conductors and upstream protection must be verified for the 80 A load before substitution.

What is the breaking capacity of 5SP4480-8?

10 kA at 400 V AC per EN 60898, with a multi-phase AC rated voltage of 440 V. This is the standard breaking capacity for industrial distribution boards; for higher fault currents you would need a current-limiting upstream device or a higher-rated MCB series.

Where can I buy 5SP4480-8?
