Siemens RD63T180 - 1800 A, 600 V, 3-Pole Circuit Breaker | AmpState

Siemens RD63T180 is a 3-pole molded case circuit breaker engineered to deliver dependable branch-circuit overcurrent and short-circuit protection in panelboards and load centers. With an 1800A rating at up to 600V, it’s built to handle high-demand feeders in commercial and light-industrial installations, while still fitting into residential electrical environments when appropriate panel choices are made.

• Compact molded case design maximizes panel space, enabling smarter layouts and easier roomier installations in both new builds and upgrades.
• Thermal-magnetic trip unit delivers stable, repeatable protection performance by automatically responding to overcurrent events with precise coordination between thermal and magnetic mechanisms.
• OEM-friendly compatibility designed to pair with matching Siemens and other OEM load centers and panelboards for streamlined replacements and retrofit projects.
• Versatile application suitable for residential, commercial, and light industrial environments where reliable branch-circuit protection is essential.
