What this 63 A D-curve MCB is for
For UL 1077 recognition, the interrupting rating is 5 kA (cite:).
Thermal derating and panel conditions
At 35 °C ambient this breaker carries the full 63 A. As the panel warms, the continuous rating drops: 57.14 A at 45 °C, 55.06 A at 50 °C, 52.92 A at 55 °C, and 50.65 A at 60 °C (cite:–). Humidity also matters — the surrounding air can be up to 95% RH at 55 °C, but that limit falls to 35% RH at 75 °C (cite:).
