The Schneider Electric A9F74340 is an Acti9 iC60N miniature circuit breaker, 3P, 40A, curve C, for DIN-rail mounting in distribution boards and control panels.
When a breaker of this type trips repeatedly, check the load first; if the breaker itself is damaged or no longer latches, replace it with the same pole number, rating (40A) and curve (C).
