Schneider Electric (SE) has issued a product safety notice in relation to a series of Moulded Case Circuit Breakers (MCCBs). The notice warns of potential unsafe conditions and the notice should be brought to the attention of the responsible person in your organisation.

As the notice states: “The products covered include ComPact NSX, NSU, NSC 400 – 630A , EasyPact CVS, EZC, EZD, EZS, CSU 400 – 630A , PowerPact L 250 – 600A. These products have either been purchased for incorporation into a finished offer such as a Low Voltage Distribution equipment or Generator Set for example (LV switchboard Builder or OEM) or have been supplied directly to an installation.”

It adds that the potentially affected MCCB may contain a nonconforming component that may result in the circuit breaker not operating as intended under certain conditions. SE has decided to carry out a full investigation and remedial action.

SE has written those it believes may have purchased the products, stating: “The purpose of this letter is to inform you about the potential risk and ask you to provide the proper identification and information. This information will be used to identify and complete necessary remedial work.
