What is the difference between MT32N1, MT32H1, and MT32L1?

The suffix N, H, and L denote the breaking capacity class. N is standard breaking capacity, H is high, and L is very high (limiting). The MT32N1 is the N-rated 3200 A, 3-pole variant suitable for most standard industrial distribution applications.

Is the MT32N1 available in both fixed and drawout versions?

Yes. The Masterpact MT series supports both fixed and drawout mounting configurations. Please specify your requirement when submitting your RFQ.

Which Micrologic trip unit should I select for the MT32N1?

Trip unit selection depends on your protection coordination requirements. Micrologic 2.0 A provides basic LSI protection; 5.0 E adds earth fault; 6.0 E adds measurement; 7.0 adds power quality metering.

Can Konmask.com provide the original Schneider Electric test certificate?

Yes. All units we supply come with the original manufacturer's factory test certificate and full traceability documentation as standard.

What is the typical lead time for the MT32N1?

Ex-stock units can ship within 3–5 business days. For non-stock items, typical lead time is 4–8 weeks depending on Schneider Electric's production schedule.

Description

Schneider Electric MT32N1 Air Circuit Breaker – Masterpact MT Series

When an unprotected power distribution system experiences a fault current, the consequences are immediate and catastrophic: arc flash events, equipment destruction, unplanned downtime, and in the worst cases, loss of life. In mission-critical industrial environments — from steel mills and data centers to offshore platforms and large commercial buildings — the absence of a reliable air circuit breaker means there is no last line of defense between a fault and a full facility shutdown. The Schneider Electric MT32N1 is precisely that defense: a high-performance air circuit breaker engineered to interrupt fault currents with speed, precision, and repeatability that conventional molded-case breakers simply cannot match.

The MT32N1 belongs to Schneider Electric’s Masterpact MT series, the flagship range of low-voltage air circuit breakers designed for main and tie breaker applications in demanding power distribution architectures. Within the Masterpact MT lineup, the MT32N1 occupies the 3200 A frame class with a standard breaking capacity (N-rated), making it the preferred choice for engineers who require robust overcurrent protection without over-specifying to the higher H or L breaking capacity tiers. Globally, the Masterpact MT series is recognized as a benchmark product in IEC 60947-2 compliant switchgear, deployed across more than 100 countries and trusted by EPC contractors, panel builders, and end-users in the most demanding industrial and infrastructure sectors.
