C-Series
C-Series
CIRCUIT BREAKER
The C-Series hydraulic-magnetic circuit breakers are ideal for applications that require higher amperage and
voltage handling capability in a smaller package. They are available in 1-6 poles, 0.02-100amps, UL Recognized
up to 480VAC or 150VDC, UL489 Listed up to 240VAC or 125VDC, with choice of time delays, terminal
options, actuator styles and colors. The C-Series employs a unique arc chute design which allows for higher
interrupting capacities of up to 10,000 amps. Thermoset glass filled polyester half shell construction provides
for increased mechanical and electrical strength. The wiping contacts mechanical linkage, with two step
actuation, cleans contacts providing high, positive contact pressure and longer contact life. Available with
American Standard or Metric Threaded Stud terminals, or Saddle Clamp screw terminals. The optional mid-trip
handle style actuator allows a visual indication of electrical overload with or without alarm feature.
Product Highlights:
Extensive list of Agency Approvals

Dielectric Strength
UL, CSA: 1960 V 50/60 Hz for one
minute between all electrically
isolated terminals. C-Series Circuit
Breakers comply with the 8mm
spacing and 3750V 50/60 Hz
dielectric requirements from
hazardous voltage to operator
accessible surfaces, between
adjacent poles and from main
circuits to auxiliary circuits per
Publications EN 60950 and
VDE 0805.

Trip Indication
10,000 ON-OFF operations @ 6 per
minute; with rated current &
voltage.
All C-Series circuit breakers will trip
on overload, even when actuator is
forcibly held in the ON position.
The operating actuator moves
positively to the OFF position when
an overload causes the breaker to
trip. With mid-trip, handle moves to
the mid position on electrical trip of
the circuit breaker. With mid trip
handle with alarm switch, handle
moves to the mid position and the
alarm switch actuates when the
circuit breaker is electrically
tripped.
1-6 poles ≤ 50A; 1-4 poles @ 51-
70A; 1-2 poles 71-100A. UL489
Handle: 1 pole ≤ 100A, 2 pole ≤
50A; Rocker: 1 pole ≤ 100A.
