I think this is the model Midnight sells (175A & 250A)
"Maximum Voltage 125VDC, 277VAC"
We agonize over DC voltages that exceed breaker rating during charging conditions (especially for a nominal 48V battery.)
Ability to interrupt arc, and at what current, is our greatest concern there.
In the case of this Carling breaker, I think "Maximum ... 277VAC" means the highest nominal voltage.
You could use the breaker in a 120Vrms circuit, or European 220Vrms, or 277Vrms
277/480Y (each pole sees 277V to neutral.)
But line tolerance means that could be 277Vrms +/- 5%.
If you had a 480V line to line fault or overload, the ganged breaker poles would all trip and voltage would be interrupted by two poles in series.
Correction:
277 is shown only for 1 pole.
120Vrms per pole for 2 or 3 poles. Only 10,000 AIC for AC, vs. 50,000 AIC for DC.
(Surprising the interrupting capability is lower for AC. My guess would be it could interrupt as much as for DC, but they tested and listed to meet a standard application requirement for branch circuits. Main breaker for commercial applications might require 100kA or 200kA.)
Interesting the "Mechanical Endurance" has different ratings for Parallel Pole construction. 1000 operations at rated current rather than 4000 operations.
Is that because arc is interrupted more by one pole than another, perhaps due to it opening sooner?
Or mechanical stress of one pole causing others to switch?
Or, the pole opens more slowly because held back by other poles?
At rated current (not over), the 1000 operations would be mechanically performed, not caused by internal trip mechanism.
I like that they spec resistance. 100A breaker is < 0.0007 ohms.
I had problems with Squared-D QO270 breakers having higher resistance, which caused parallel paths to share unequally.
That was thermal-magnetic, so a resistance element; These Carling are magnetic-hydraulic.
The spec (as written) doesn't appear to derate AIC for multiple parallel DC poles (only number of cycles.)
I could probably use on a battery bank feeding a pair or three inverters, good for split-phase or 3-phase.
In the case of a DC fault, it would be only one pole interrupting short-circuit current. But if opening was slowed by dragging the other two levels behind it, might actually reduce its AIC. Best to clarify with manufacturer rather than relying on spec as written! Needs to be supported by actual test conditions. Individual poles rather than ganged would definitely be supported as spec'd.
