Product FAQs

7 answers
Which Siemens panelboards and switchboards accept the HLD63B500 breaker?

This LD frame breaker is compatible with Siemens Sentron Type P4 and P5 panelboards, as well as SB1, SB2, and SB3 switchboards and standard standalone enclosures.

What wire sizes are accepted by the factory lugs on the HLD63B500?

The included line and load lugs accept two 3/0 AWG to 500 kcmil copper (Cu) conductors, or two 4/0 AWG to 500 kcmil aluminum (Al) conductors per phase.

What is the difference between standard LD6 breakers and the HLD63B500?

The "H" in the HLD63B500 catalog number indicates a high interrupting capacity design. This model provides 100kA at 240VAC and 65kA at 480VAC, allowing it to clear heavier fault currents than standard LD frame breakers.

Does the HLD63B500 support direct current (DC) systems?

Yes, this thermal magnetic breaker is rated for DC applications up to 500VDC, with a tested interrupting capacity of 35kA at 250VDC.

How is the trip unit configured on this 500A Siemens breaker?

The HLD63B500 features a thermal magnetic trip unit with a fixed long time (thermal) pickup and an adjustable instantaneous (magnetic) trip. The magnetic settings can be dialed in on the front faceplate to properly coordinate with downstream electrical devices.

Are line and load lugs included with this circuit breaker?

Yes, the HLD63B500 is supplied as a complete unit mount assembly that includes both line and load side terminal lugs out of the box.

What ambient temperature is the HLD63B500 calibrated for?

This circuit breaker is calibrated to carry its full 500 amp continuous current rating at an ambient temperature of 40 degrees Celsius (104 degrees Fahrenheit).
