Molded-case non-automatic circuit breakers
The table below shows the power loss and the current path resistance for molded-case non-
automatic circuit breakers. The power loss applies for I
n
with 3-phase balanced load. The
specified power loss is the sum of all current paths. The current path resistance is only a
guide value and can fluctuate.
