Description
GE SGHC3606L3XX
Technical Specifications:
- Brand: General Electric (GE)
- Model: SGHC3606L3XX
- Product Type: Panelboard Switch / Circuit Breaker
- Voltage Rating: 600V AC Class
Functional Features:
- High-Capacity Switching: Engineered to handle higher continuous currents and fault levels than standard panelboard switches.
- Arc Suppression: Advanced arc chute design for rapid and safe arc extinction.
- Reliable Isolation: Ensures a visible and safe disconnect point for personnel protection.
Application Scenarios:
Used in heavy manufacturing plants, large commercial complexes, and industrial motor control centers.
Performance Parameters:
- Interrupting Capacity: High short-circuit interrupting rating to safely clear severe fault currents.
- Electrical Endurance: Designed for extensive load cycling with minimal contact wear.
Material Composition:
Heavy-duty silver-cadmium oxide contacts, phenolic arc chutes, and rugged steel or thermoset enclosure.
Structural Characteristics:
Heavy-duty panelboard form factor with a robust operating mechanism, clear position indicators, and standardized primary connections.
Working Principle:
Energizing the control coil or manually operating the handle creates a magnetic or mechanical action that closes the main power contacts. During a fault, the trip unit releases the latch to rapidly separate contacts.
Installation Requirements:
Mount securely on a flat, stable panel surface. Ensure adequate clearance above and below for arc venting and cooling airflow.
Usage Precautions:
Torque all power connections to the manufacturer’s exact specifications to prevent overheating. Inspect contacts periodically and replace if pitting or wear exceeds limits.
