⚡ Key Features
- 70 kA short-circuit breaking capacity — the MPCB alone handles fault interruption; no separate backup fuse required for short-circuit protection in this duty range.
- Combined thermal and magnetic protection in one device — single MPCB replaces a separate motor-rated MCB plus thermal overload relay, saving DIN rail space and inter-device wiring.
- Phase-loss and phase-unbalance detection — trips within seconds of a phase failure, protecting the motor from the severe overheating that single-phasing causes within minutes.
- Manual reset only — operator must acknowledge and reset the MPCB after a trip, preventing automatic restart that could damage the motor or driven machinery.
- Manufactured to IEC 60947-4-1 and IEC 60947-2 — complies with the applicable Indian BIS and IEC international standards for this product category.
- BIS certified, CE marked, RoHS compliant — meets Indian regulatory requirements for use in government, commercial, and industrial electrical installations.
- Genuine authorised Schneider Electric product — sourced directly from the official distribution network with full manufacturer traceability and warranty.
- GST invoice provided for India orders — valid for corporate procurement, government project orders, and public tender supply via myelectric.in.
- Worldwide export available — UAE, Singapore, UK, USA, Sri Lanka & more. Contact +91 94814 00316 for bulk pricing and international shipping.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What does the 70 kA breaking capacity on the GV6P500H mean in practice?
A: Breaking capacity (70 kA) is the maximum prospective short-circuit current the GV6P500H can safely interrupt without damage. Before installing, verify that the prospective fault level at the installation point does not exceed 70 kA — this is checked using a fault level calculation or from the upstream transformer impedance data. Installing a breaker with insufficient breaking capacity is a serious safety violation.
Q: What is the trip class of the GV6P500H and what motor starting time does it allow?
A: MPCBs are typically rated Class 10 (trips in ≤10 seconds at 7.2× setting current), suitable for normal motors with DOL starting times up to 10 seconds. Heavy-duty motors (large fans, centrifuges, compressors) with longer starting times may need Class 20 or Class 30 protection — check the starting time against the motor’s speed-torque curve and select accordingly.
Q: Can the GV6P500H replace a contactor + overload relay combination in a motor circuit?
A: The GV6P500H provides motor short-circuit protection and overload protection in one device — but it cannot make/break motor current under normal operational switching (that is the contactor’s role). For motor starters requiring on/off switching, the GV6P500H is used as the upstream protection device with a contactor for switching. Some MPCB series include a direct handle for manual starting of small motors without a separate contactor.
Q: After a short-circuit trip on the GV6P500H, can it be reset and reused immediately?
A: After a short-circuit trip, do not immediately reset the GV6P500H. First, identify and clear the fault. Then inspect the device — if there is visible arc damage, melted insulation, or the handle does not reset smoothly, the device must be replaced. The 70 kA rated breaking capacity is not unlimited — it is the maximum fault current the device can interrupt safely for a defined number of operations (typically 1–3 at full Icu rating). After any significant fault, factor replacement into your maintenance budget.
Q: What is the difference between a Motor Protection Circuit Breaker (MPCB) and a standard MCB — and why use the GV6P500H?
A: A standard MCB protects against overload and short-circuit only. A Motor Protection Circuit Breaker (MPCB) adds adjustable thermal overload matched to motor FLC, Class 10/20 trip curves for motor starting inrush, and phase-loss sensitivity — making it the correct device for motor branch circuits where a standard MCB would either nuisance-trip on motor starting or fail to protect adequately against slow overloads. Choose the GV6P500H when the application specifically requires motor protection circuit breaker (mpcb) characteristics.
