The NORB1H3C5 is a NOARK B1H-series moulded-case circuit breaker designed for industrial and commercial panelboards and switchboards rated for 480/277V three-phase systems. As a DIN-rail or busbar-mount MCCB, it is not intended for residential loadcentres. It is suited for motor control centres, distribution boards, and industrial enclosures where a 3-pole, 5A, C-Curve breaker is required for branch-circuit or equipment protection.
Specific panelboard compatibility depends on your enclosure's busbar pitch and mounting system. Send us your panel or enclosure model and we'll confirm fitment.
A C-Curve means the NORB1H3C5 will trip instantaneously when the current reaches 5 to 10 times its rated 5A (i.e., 25A–50A). This makes it well-suited for protecting general industrial loads, lighting circuits, and small transformers or equipment with moderate inrush currents — not heavy motor loads, which typically require a D-Curve breaker.
Yes. The breaker carries a dual voltage rating of 480V (line-to-line, three-phase) and 277V (line-to-neutral), making it compatible with standard North American 480Y/277V commercial and industrial distribution systems. Always verify your system voltage and confirm the breaker's interrupting rating meets your available fault current before installation.
