FAQ

Question?
What is the difference between a GV2-L and a GV2-M motor circuit breaker?

Answer:
The GV2-L series, like this GV2-L32, provides magnetic-only (short-circuit) protection. It must be used with a separate thermal overload relay for complete motor protection. The GV2-M series provides combined magnetic and thermal (overload) protection in a single unit.

Answer:
The GVAN11 is an auxiliary contact that mounts on the side of the circuit breaker. The '11' signifies it provides one Normally Open (NO) and one Normally Closed (NC) contact. These contacts can be used for remote signaling, interlocking, or control logic, for example, to indicate the breaker's status (ON/OFF) to a PLC or illuminate a pilot light.

Answer:
No, the GV2-L series has a fixed, non-adjustable magnetic trip setting. The value is factory-set to the nominal current specified in the model number, which is 32 Amperes for this unit.
