50 Hz breakers and contactors??

[Dert]

Anybody concerned about running 50 Hz versus 60 Hz bought from Auber?

Auber's contactors are rated for 50/60 Hz. Not sure how frequency might affect the magnetic trip action of a breaker.

Brew on

Shouldn't be a problem. I think most of them use a solenoid trip. The magnetic field is proportional to the current flowing at whatever frequency. Could be DC probably and the thing would still work.

I use a 50hz 100a main contactor in my big panel.. no issues.
