FAQ

What is the difference between a B, C, and D trip curve on a circuit breaker like the C60N?

The trip curve defines the breaker’s sensitivity to overcurrents. ‘B’ curve is for resistive loads (e.g., heaters) with low inrush current. ‘C’ curve (like this one) is for general purpose loads with moderate inrush (e.g., lighting, motors). ‘D’ curve is for high inrush loads like transformers and large motors.

Can I use this Merlin Gerin C60N breaker in a modern Schneider Electric Acti9 distribution board?

Yes, the DIN rail mounting and physical dimensions are standardized (IEC/EN 60715). This Merlin Gerin C60N will physically fit and connect to the busbar in a modern Acti9 panel, making it an excellent replacement part for existing systems.

What is the purpose of the included OF auxiliary contact (26924)?

The OF (Ouvert/Ferme – Open/Closed) auxiliary contact is a potential-free switch that changes state when the breaker is manually operated or trips. It is used to send a signal to a PLC, indicator lamp, or alarm system to remotely indicate the breaker’s status.
