Why it Matters

Protects all three phases together.
The NT320C is a 20A three-pole miniature circuit breaker, protecting a three-phase circuit against both overload and short circuit and tripping automatically when either occurs. Its three linked poles switch and protect all three phases as one, a common choice for larger three-phase power sub-circuits, motors and distribution feeds, with a high 10kA breaking capacity for the fault levels found in commercial and industrial switchboards.

C curve for motor and mixed 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 inductive loads including the inrush of three-phase motors. Backed by a 10kA short-circuit breaking capacity to IEC 60898-1 and energy limiting class 3, the NT320C limits let-through energy during a fault to help protect downstream cabling and equipment.

Built for Australian switchboards.
At three modules (52.5mm) wide, 83mm high and 70mm deep, the NT320C 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 distribution boards and plant rooms across Australian conditions. Hager auxiliaries including the MZ201 auxiliary contact, MZ202 alarm contact and MZ203/MZ204 shunt trips are available.

Q: Is the Hager NT320C a three-phase breaker?
Yes. It is a 3-pole (3P) MCB that switches and protects all three phases of a 415V circuit together; it does not include a separate neutral pole.

Q: What does the C curve mean on the NT320C?
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 inductive loads including motors.

Q: What is the difference between the NT320C (10kA) and a 6kA MCB?
10kA is the rated short-circuit breaking capacity, suited to higher-fault commercial and industrial boards; a 6kA breaker such as Hager's MSN range is used where fault levels are lower, typically residential and light commercial.
