Why it Matters

A 63A breaker you can spot at a glance.
The MSN163R is a 63A miniature circuit breaker with a red toggle, the same protection as the standard MSN163 but with a distinctive red operating lever. The red toggle makes the device easy to identify in a populated board – commonly used to mark a main switch, sub-main feeder or a critical circuit that staff need to find quickly. It protects against both overload and short circuit and trips automatically when either occurs.

C curve for feeders and inrush loads.
The C tripping characteristic trips on short circuit at 5 to 10 times rated current, the general-purpose curve suited to mixed resistive and moderately inductive loads and the higher-inrush feeders a 63A rating typically serves. Backed by a 6kA short-circuit breaking capacity to IEC 60898-1 and energy limiting class 3, the MSN163R limits let-through energy during a fault to help protect downstream cabling.

Built for Australian switchboards.
At one module (17.5mm) wide, 83mm high and 70mm deep, the MSN163R clips onto standard 35mm DIN rail with 360° mounting flexibility, and its terminals take rigid conductors up to 35mm² at 2.8Nm. It is compliant with AS/NZS 60898.1, rated IP20, and operates from -25°C to 70°C to suit meter boxes, distribution boards and homes across Australian conditions. With 7.4W dissipation at full load, allow for heat in tightly packed boards. Hager auxiliaries including the MZ201 auxiliary contact, MZ202 alarm contact and MZ203/MZ204 shunt trips are available.

Q: What is the red toggle on the Hager MSN163R for?
The red toggle visually distinguishes the breaker in a crowded board, so it is easy to identify a main switch, sub-main feeder or critical circuit at a glance; the protection is the same as the standard MSN163.

Q: What does the C curve mean on the MSN163R?
The C curve trips on short circuit at 5 to 10 times the rated current, making it the general-purpose characteristic for mixed resistive and moderately inductive loads.

Q: What is the difference between the MSN163R (6kA) and a 10kA MCB?
6kA is the rated short-circuit breaking capacity, suited to residential and light commercial boards; a 10kA breaker such as Hager's NT range is specified where fault levels are higher, typically in commercial and industrial installations.
