HHED63B040 - 40Amp Circuit Breaker

HHED63B040 - 40Amp Circuit Breaker

The Siemens HHED63B040 is a 40 Amp, 3-pole molded case circuit breaker from the SENTRON HHED6 family. It uses an ED frame with a thermal-magnetic trip unit and is rated for 600VAC. Interrupting capacity is 18kAIC at 600V and 65kAIC at 480V. For your replacement work, the terminal setup deserves a close look: this version comes with LN1E100 load-side lugs only and accepts 10–1/0 AWG copper or aluminum conductors.
