Miniature Circuit Breaker S 200/S 200 M
Deviating ambient temperature
For installations of miniature circuit breakers at other tempe-
ratures than the reference value derating factors have to be
considered.
The rated value of the current of a miniature circuit breaker
refers to a reference ambient temperature of 30 °C for circuit
Derating
Influence of adjacent devices
If several miniature circuit breakers are installed directly side
by side with high load on all poles, a correction factor has to
be applied to the rated current (see table). If distance pieces
are used, the factor is not to be considered.

breakers with the characteristics B, C and D and 20 °C for
circuit breakers with the characteristics K and Z. The following
table contains the derating of the load capability at ambient
temperatures from -40 °C to 70 °C for the characteristics B,
C, D, K and Z.
