Product FAQs
8 answersWhat does the "NT" suffix in the SHLD69600NT catalog number indicate?
In the Siemens Sensitrip III series, the "NT" suffix designates that the breaker is equipped with LSI (Long-Time, Short-Time, Instantaneous) electronic trip functions.
Does the SHLD69600NT come with mounting lugs?
No, this breaker is supplied without terminals. Line and load lugs must be purchased separately to match your specific wire size and material requirements.
Which mechanical lug kits are compatible with this 600A LD frame breaker?
For standard applications, use the TA2J6500 aluminum lug kit, which accepts two 3/0 AWG to 500 kcmil copper or 4/0 AWG to 500 kcmil aluminum wires per phase. For copper-only applications, the TC2J6500 lug kit is compatible.
Are compression lugs available for the SHLD69600NT?
Yes, you can use the CCL600 compression lug kit, which accommodates a single 1/0 AWG to 500 kcmil copper or aluminum wire per lug.
What does the LSI electronic trip unit allow me to adjust?
The LSI trip function allows you to adjust the Long-Time, Short-Time, and Instantaneous pickup and delay settings. This provides precise control for selective coordination in complex electrical distribution systems.
What equipment is the SHLD69600NT designed to be installed in?
This LD frame breaker is designed for use in Siemens Sentron panelboards, switchboards, and motor control centers.
Can the SHLD69600NT be used in reverse-feed applications?
No, the SHLD6 high-interrupting frame is not suitable for reverse connection applications.
Is the SHLD69600NT a direct replacement for older ITE breakers?
