GE SELA36AI0100 Molded Case Circuit Breaker

Product Dimensions：

The GE SELA36AI0100 is a high-performance Molded Case Circuit Breaker (MCCB) from the Spectra RMS™ SEL series. These breakers use digital electronic trip technology, offering precise protection and high reliability for industrial and commercial power systems.

1. Product Detailed Description

The SELA36AI0100 is a 3-pole, 100-Ampere circuit breaker designed for use in the GE Spectra RMS system. Unlike traditional thermal-magnetic breakers, the Spectra RMS series uses a digital sampling technique to calculate the true RMS current, ensuring accurate tripping even in the presence of harmonic distortion.

The “SELA” designation indicates a Standard Break interrupting capacity within the SEL frame family. It is a compact, bolt-on style breaker often used in switchboards, panelboards, and motor control centers.

2. Technical Parameters

3. Product Advantages

• True RMS Sensing: Provides accurate protection by monitoring the actual heating effect of the current, preventing nuisance tripping caused by harmonics.

• Interchangeability: Part of the Spectra RMS line, which allows for easy upgrades or changes in amperage ratings by simply swapping the rating plug (if applicable to the specific sub-series).

• High Interrupting Capacity: With a 65kA rating at 480V, it is suitable for high-fault current environments.

• Compact Footprint: Offers a space-saving design for high-density electrical panels.

• Reliable Electronic Trip: Electronic trip units are more stable over time and less sensitive to ambient temperature changes compared to thermal-magnetic units.

4. Cautions and Installation (Precautions)

• De-energize Before Service: Always ensure the power supply is disconnected before installation or maintenance to prevent electrical shock.

• Proper Torque: Terminal lugs must be tightened to the manufacturer’s specified torque settings to prevent overheating and fire hazards.

• Environmental Limits: Avoid installing the breaker in environments with excessive moisture, corrosive gases, or temperatures outside the rated operating range.

• Rating Plug Compatibility: Ensure the rating plug is firmly seated and matches the intended circuit load.

• Firmware/Trip Settings: Verify that the trip settings (Long time, Instantaneous, etc.) are correctly adjusted for your specific coordination study.

5. Product Applications

The GE SELA36AI0100 is versatile and widely used in:

• Industrial Plants: Protecting heavy machinery, conveyors, and manufacturing lines.

• Commercial Buildings: Main distribution in office complexes, hospitals, and shopping centers.

• Data Centers: Where harmonic currents are common and precise RMS sensing is critical.

• Motor Control Centers (MCCs): Providing branch circuit protection for motor starters.

• OEM Equipment: Integrated into custom power distribution units.
