Product FAQs
7 answers
What is the difference between the Siemens HLXD63B450 and the LXD63B450?
The HLXD63B450 features a high interrupting rating of 65kAIC at 480VAC, indicated by the H in the catalog number. The standard LXD63B450 has a lower interrupting rating of 35kAIC at 480VAC. Both breakers share the same LD frame footprint and mounting dimensions.
What does the X in the HLXD63B450 catalog number signify?
The X indicates that the breaker is factory assembled with a non-interchangeable trip unit. Frames without the X, such as the HLD63B450, are sold separately and require a field installed trip unit.
