Schneider Electric GV2ME08 Miniature Motor Starter

Schneider Electric GV2ME08 TeSys GV2 Miniature Motor Starter is a compact 3-pole motor protection circuit breaker (MPCB) that combines overload protection and motor switching in a single unit. The GV2ME08 handles load currents from 2.5 to 4 A and provides thermal-magnetic protection, with secure wiring achieved via screw-clamp terminals and a push-button operator for local start/stop control. Rated for up to 690 V AC, this device supports short-circuit currents up to 100 kA, enabling reliable protection for small three-phase motors in control panels and equipment enclosures. As part of the TeSys GV2 Deca family, the GV2ME08 serves as a manual motor starter and protector within broader motor-control schemes where space is at a premium, offering straightforward local control and robust protection in a compact footprint. It is designed for panel builders and machine designers requiring integrated motor protection and local control in a compact form factor.
