Suitable for

• Residential electrical distribution boards
• Commercial office power systems
• Protection of lighting circuits
• General purpose electrical installations requiring 32A capacity

When it may not be suitable

This circuit breaker is not intended for use in high-current industrial applications that exceed its 32A rating or 6kA breaking capacity. It is also not suitable for DC electrical systems, as it is specifically designed for AC circuit protection.

Key specifications

• Number of poles: 3
• Tripping characteristic: B-type
• Rated current: 32A
• Breaking capacity: 6kA
• Mounting type: DIN rail

How to use

The device should be installed by a qualified electrician in accordance with local electrical codes and safety regulations. It is designed to be mounted onto a standard DIN rail within a distribution enclosure. Ensure that the supply cables are securely connected to the input terminals and that the load cables are connected to the output terminals, maintaining proper torque settings to prevent loose connections. Once installed, the breaker can be manually switched on or off using the toggle lever on the front panel.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that the 32A rated current matches your circuit requirements
• Ensure the 6kA breaking capacity is sufficient for your installation's prospective short-circuit current
• Confirm that the B-type tripping curve is appropriate for your specific load types
• Check the available space in your distribution board for a 3-pole device

Usage recommendations

Regularly inspect the circuit breaker for any signs of physical damage or discoloration. It is recommended to perform a functional test by toggling the switch periodically to ensure the mechanism remains operational. If the breaker trips, investigate the cause of the overload or short circuit before resetting the device.
