Siemens ED43B050L molded case circuit breaker is rated 50A and 480VAC with 3 poles and 3-phase operation. UL 489 interrupting ratings are 65kA at 240VAC and 18kA at 480VAC. This SENTRON ED4 series breaker has an ED-Frame, panel mounting, standard protection and a thermal magnetic trip with fixed thermal and fixed magnetic settings and LI trip function. Line and load side lug connections accept 10-1/0 AWG conductors. It measures 6.35 in high, 3 in wide and 3.92 in deep. Operating temperature is 40 °C, and approvals are UL and IEC.
What load rating should I use when selecting the Siemens ED43B050L?
Its rated current is 50A. Use that rating when evaluating circuit load, conductor protection and applicable continuous-load requirements, rather than treating it as an exact instantaneous trip threshold.
What voltage rating should I use for circuit selection?
The breaker is rated 480VAC. Select it for an AC circuit within that voltage rating, and check the interrupting rating at the circuit voltage separately.
How do I check whether its interrupting rating is sufficient?
The UL 489 interrupting ratings are 65kA at 240VAC and 18kA at 480VAC. Compare the applicable rating with the available fault current at the installation point; the available fault current must not exceed that rating.
Is this a breaker for a three-phase circuit?
Yes, it is a 3-pole breaker for 3-phase applications. The pole count supports protection of the three phase conductors, so use it when the circuit calls for three-pole protection.
Can I adjust the overload or short-circuit trip settings?
No. The thermal and magnetic trip settings are fixed. Its thermal-magnetic LI trip function provides long-time overload protection and instantaneous short-circuit protection, so select it where fixed trip characteristics suit the protection plan.
How are conductors connected, and what wire sizes do the terminals accept?
Line-side and load-side connections use lugs, with a conductor range of 10-1/0 AWG. Keep terminal conductor sizes within that range, and select conductor ampacity separately for the circuit requirements.
What dimensions should I use for the breaker layout?
The breaker measures 6.35 in high, 3.00 in wide and 3.92 in deep. Use these overall dimensions to lay out its mounting location.
