Exact ratings and release construction vary.<\/p>\n<h3>Is frame rating the same as the trip setting?<\/h3>\n<p>Not necessarily. The installed release and permitted adjustment determine the operating setting. Check both against the conductor and load.<\/p>\n<h3>Why does breaking capacity change with voltage?<\/h3>\n<p>Interruption performance is declared for particular operating conditions. Use the exact voltage-dependent rating table rather than transferring one kA value to another voltage.<\/p>\n<h3>Can another breaker with the same amperes replace it?<\/h3>\n<p>Not without reviewing ratings, curves, connections, dimensions, accessories and assembly acceptance. Matching current alone does not establish equivalence.<\/p>\n<h2>Referencias<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/webstore.iec.ch\/en\/publication\/66277\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">IEC 60947-2:2024 \u2014 \u00e1mbito de aplicaci\u00f3n del producto interruptor de circuito<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/webstore.iec.ch\/en\/publication\/32338\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">IEC 61439-1:2020 \u2014 Normas generales para la instalaci\u00f3n de baja tensi\u00f3n<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nfpa.org\/codes-and-standards\/nfpa-70-standard-development\/70\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">NFPA 70 \u2014 Desarrollo y alcance del c\u00f3digo de instalaci\u00f3n para Estados Unidos<\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Antes del lanzamiento, confirme las calificaciones exactas, la documentaci\u00f3n y los requisitos del mercado de destino con W9.<\/p>\n<p>Para revisar la configuraci\u00f3n propuesta, <a href=\"https:\/\/w9-group.com\/es\/contactenos\/\">Contacte con W9 Group<\/a> con el horario de carga disponible <strong>Corriente de fallo<\/strong> y los requisitos del mercado de destino.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>En lo que respecta a la seguridad el\u00e9ctrica y a la protecci\u00f3n de los circuitos, los disyuntores de carcasa moldeada (abreviadamente MCB) desempe\u00f1an un papel muy importante, ya sea en f\u00e1bricas o en edificios residenciales.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":3770,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3463","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-blog"],"blocksy_meta":{"styles_descriptor":{"styles":{"desktop":"","tablet":"","mobile":""},"google_fonts":[],"version":8}},"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/w9-group.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3463","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/w9-group.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/w9-group.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/w9-group.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/w9-group.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3463"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/w9-group.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3463\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4810,"href":"https:\/\/w9-group.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3463\/revisions\/4810"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/w9-group.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3770"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/w9-group.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3463"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/w9-group.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3463"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/w9-group.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3463"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
