Schneider Electric G20B3A160 GoPact MCCB 200 3P 160 A 25 kA TM-D Adjustable Fixed Moulded Case Circuit Breaker

The Schneider Electric G20B3A160 is a 3-pole GoPact MCCB 200 moulded case circuit breaker rated 160 A, built on the 200 A frame with an ultimate breaking capacity (Icu) of 25 kA at 380/415 V AC. Its TM-D thermal-magnetic trip unit gives adjustable long-time overload protection (L) and instantaneous short-circuit protection (I) fixed at 12 x In (1920 A), fixed-mounted to a backplate for distribution-board incomers and feeders.

Selection Notes

The adjustable Ir range (adjustable from 0.7 x In to 1 x In (112-160 A)) lets this 160 A breaker be tuned down for loads sized below the nominal 200 A frame rating, and the instantaneous pick-up is fixed at 12 x In so the magnetic trip scales with the chosen thermal setting. Unlike the 125 A frame, this 200 A frame rates Ics at 100% of Icu (25 kA of 25 kA at 380/415 V AC), so it can clear its full fault current repeatedly without a derated service rating — a relevant factor for sub-mains where more than one fault clearance may occur before maintenance.
