Masterpact™  MP  circuit breaker 
i ntroduction, advantages 

standard compliance 

• 

UL489 : MasterpactTM MP 

08 

to MP 30 

circuit breakers and their accessories are 
listed under UL file E63335, E1 1 3554 and 

E1 1 3555 

• 

international standards  : MasterpactTM has 

been designed to meet all the major 
standards including : 

IEC  1 57-1 

british BS 47-52 

french  NF C63-1 20 

german VDE 

660 

australian AS 1 930 

• 

marine applications : 

homologated by Bureau Veritas 

approved by Det Norske Veritas 

and Germanische Lloyd's 

listed by Lloyd's Register of shipping 

American Bureau of shipping application. 

other  performances 

The UL 489 standard assures that the circuit 

breaker has sufficient characteristics to be 

used in normal conditions. 
However,  MasterpactTM exceeds without 
additional costs the standard 1 ,500 
operations required in endurance. The 
heavy duty mechanism and the contact 
design provide a mechanical endurance of 

10,000 operations without maintenance. 

single design  up to 
6300A 

All frame sizes have been designed with the 

same technology featuring a single depth 
and door cutout, common control units and 
accessories. 

high short time  current 
rating: 

up to 100kA for 1  sec. 

The exceptional short time rating of 65,000A 

in a 3000A frame and 1 OO,OOOA in a 4000A 
frame and above allows MasterpactTM  to be 
fully selective up to its interrupting rating. 

100% rated 

MasterpactTM circuit breakers  are  designed 

for continuous operation at 1 00% of their 
current rating as permitted by the N EC.
