C100N32AFM – ComPacT NS1000N 3P 1000 A, 50 kA Icu at 380/415 V MCCB.
The Schneider Electric C100N32AFM is a 3-pole ComPacT NS1000N moulded case circuit breaker rated 1000 A, with a 50 kA breaking capacity (Icu) at 380/415 V AC. It is fitted with a MicroLogic 2.0 A trip unit delivering long-time overload and instantaneous short-circuit protection (LI), is fixed-mounted and manually operated, and carries a 690 V rated operational voltage for industrial distribution switchboards.
Its LI trip unit covers long-time overload and instantaneous short-circuit tripping only, which keeps the breaker simple and is adequate where upstream or downstream devices already handle short-time discrimination. The built-in ammeter display gives a local RMS current reading without needing a separate panel meter. The N-frame rating gives it 50 kA Icu at 380/415 V AC, the standard distribution class for this amperage; step up to an H-frame sibling at the same 1000 A when the prospective fault current at the installation point exceeds this breaker's Icu.
