The Schneider Electric GV2P08 is a three-pole motor circuit breaker designed for 3-phase motor applications up to 1.1-1.5kW at 400V. It offers reliable thermal-magnetic protection and a high breaking capacity of 100kA at 400V, ensuring safety and operational continuity. A key benefit is its adjustable thermal range for precise motor protection. However, its primary function is motor protection, not general circuit overload protection.

The GV2P08 is a motor protection circuit breaker designed to protect three-phase motors from overloads and short circuits, ensuring motor longevity and operational safety.
The thermal trip current can be adjusted between 2.5 Amps and 4 Amps, allowing precise protection tailored to the specific motor's current draw.
The breaker is rated for up to 690V AC and a nominal operational current of 4A. The adjustable thermal range is 2.5-4A.
No, the GV2P08 is specifically designed for three-pole (three-phase) motor applications.
Once the fault condition is cleared, the breaker can typically be reset by pushing the ON/OFF rotary handle to the OFF position and then to the ON position. If it trips again, investigate the cause of the trip.
The GV2P08 has a breaking capacity of 100 kA at 400V, meaning it can safely interrupt fault currents up to that level.
It features screw clamp terminals for secure electrical connections.
The thermal setting may be too low for the motor's startup current. Increase the thermal adjustment setting within the 2.5-4A range, ensuring it remains below the motor's maximum allowable current.
Check for motor overload (e.g., mechanical binding, excessive load). Verify the thermal setting is correctly matched to the motor's FLA. Inspect wiring connections for looseness or damage.
Ensure the fault condition that caused the trip has been cleared. If the breaker has been subjected to a severe short circuit, it may need replacement. Contact a qualified electrician if the issue persists.
Some warmth is normal due to current flow. However, excessive heat indicates a potential issue. Check terminal connections for tightness and ensure the thermal setting is appropriate for the load.
