## Long description

The Eaton PLSM-B16-MW is a professional-grade 1-pole miniature circuit breaker engineered to provide robust protection for electrical circuits. With a rated current of 16A and a B-curve tripping characteristic, this device is specifically designed to detect and interrupt overcurrents, effectively preventing damage to wiring and connected equipment. Its 10kA breaking capacity ensures reliable performance in AC power distribution systems, making it a dependable choice for maintaining electrical safety in diverse environments.
Advantages
This circuit breaker stands out due to its high-quality construction and reliable tripping mechanism, which ensures consistent operation under various load conditions. The B-curve characteristic is optimized for general applications where moderate inrush currents are expected, providing a balanced approach to sensitivity and stability. Its compact 1-pole design allows for efficient use of space within distribution boards, while the robust build quality guarantees long-term durability and operational safety in both residential and commercial electrical installations.
Suitable for
Residential electrical distribution boards
Commercial lighting and power circuits
Protection of general-purpose electrical outlets
Small office electrical infrastructure
When it may not be suitable
This device is not intended for use in DC electrical systems, as it is specifically rated for AC applications. Furthermore, it may not be suitable for circuits with high-starting-current equipment, such as large motors or heavy industrial machinery, where a C or D curve breaker would be more appropriate to prevent nuisance tripping.
Key specifications
Number of poles: 1
Rated current: 16A
Tripping characteristic: B-curve
Breaking capacity: 10kA
System type: AC
How to use
The circuit breaker is designed for mounting onto a standard DIN rail within an electrical distribution enclosure. Installation should be performed by a qualified electrician to ensure all connections are secure and comply with local electrical regulations. The device is snapped onto the rail, and the supply and load wires are connected to the respective terminals, ensuring the screws are tightened to the manufacturer's specified torque settings.
What to consider before purchase
Ensure the rated current of 16A matches the requirements of your circuit load.
Verify that the B-curve characteristic is appropriate for the types of appliances connected to the circuit.
Confirm that the 10kA breaking capacity meets the short-circuit current rating of your electrical installation.
Check that the available space in your distribution board is sufficient for a 1-pole module.
Usage recommendations
Regular inspection of the circuit breaker and periodic testing of the installation by a professional are recommended to ensure continued safety and performance. Do not exceed the rated current capacity to avoid unnecessary tripping or potential damage to the device.
