Advantages

This circuit breaker offers exceptional reliability through its high-quality internal mechanism, which ensures precise tripping when necessary. The 1P+N configuration allows for the simultaneous disconnection of both the phase and neutral conductors, providing enhanced safety during maintenance or fault conditions. Its compact design is optimized for modern distribution boards, allowing for efficient space utilization without compromising on performance or safety standards. The device is built to withstand the rigors of daily residential use while maintaining consistent operational stability.

Suitable for

• Residential electrical distribution boards
• Protection of lighting circuits
• Protection of standard household power outlets
• General home electrical infrastructure upgrades

When it may not be suitable

This device is not intended for industrial or heavy-duty commercial applications that require higher breaking capacities or different tripping characteristics. It is also not suitable for direct current (DC) circuits, as it is specifically designed for alternating current (AC) residential systems.

Key specifications

• Rated current: 10A
• Number of poles: 1P+N
• Breaking capacity: 6kA
• Tripping characteristic: C-curve
• Mounting type: DIN rail

How to use

The circuit breaker should be installed by a qualified electrician into a standard DIN rail distribution board. Ensure that the power supply is disconnected before beginning the installation process. The device snaps securely onto the rail, and the input and output wires should be connected to the appropriate terminals, ensuring that all connections are tightened to the manufacturer's specified torque settings. Once installed, the switch can be toggled to the ON position to energize the circuit.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that the 10A rating matches your circuit requirements
• Ensure compatibility with your existing distribution board DIN rail
• Confirm that the C-curve characteristic is appropriate for your connected loads

Usage recommendations: Regularly inspect the circuit breaker for any signs of physical damage or discoloration. It is recommended to test the functionality of the device periodically to ensure it remains in optimal working condition. Do not attempt to modify or repair the internal components of the breaker.
