Eaton MCB, 1+N, 20A Curve C

This miniature circuit breaker (MCB) is designed for both residential and commercial applications, providing effective overcurrent protection. The device features a compact design with dimensions of 17.5mm in width and 86mm in length, making it suitable for any standard DIN rail mounting installation. Its robust build caters to demanding electrical environments, ensuring reliability and safety in various operations.

• Designed for single pole plus neutral (1+N) configurations
• Type C characteristics help minimise nuisance tripping
• Rated capacity of 20A ensures optimal circuit protection
• High breaking capacity of 4.5kA handles overloads effectively
• Operates within an ambient temperature range of -25 to 75°C
• Toggle switch for easy reset and manual operation

• Used for electrical distribution in residential switchgear
• Ideal for commercial electrical installations requiring enhanced protection
• Suitable for automation systems needing reliable circuit control
• Effective in mechanical where low voltage protection is essential

Type C characteristics provide a delayed trip response to short circuits, which reduces the likelihood of unnecessary tripping during inrush currents from motors or transformers. This ensures the circuit remains operational without compromising safety.

A breaking capacity of 4.5kA indicates the maximum fault current the device can safely interrupt without sustaining damage. This is crucial for ensuring the equipment can handle unexpected surge currents, protecting both the circuit and connected devices.

This product is specifically designed for alternating current (AC) applications and is not suitable for direct current (DC) systems, which require different types of circuit breakers for safe operation.
