The ELEKTROPLAST NEO OCB/C20/3P is a robust 3-pole miniature circuit breaker engineered to provide dependable protection for electrical circuits. Designed for integration into residential and commercial distribution boards, this device effectively monitors current flow to prevent damage from overloads and short circuits. With its precise engineering, it ensures the safety and longevity of connected electrical systems by interrupting power when faults are detected.

Advantages

This circuit breaker offers high operational reliability and consistent performance in various electrical environments. Its 3-pole configuration allows for the simultaneous protection of three-phase circuits, ensuring comprehensive safety coverage. The device is built to withstand standard electrical stresses, providing a stable solution for modern distribution systems. Its compact design facilitates easy installation in standard modular enclosures, making it a practical choice for both new electrical projects and system upgrades.

Suitable for

• Residential electrical distribution boards
• Commercial building power systems
• Three-phase electrical circuits
• Protection of lighting and power outlet installations

This circuit breaker may not be suitable for applications requiring a different tripping characteristic, such as sensitive electronic equipment that might need B-type protection. It is also not intended for use in environments with extreme moisture, high levels of dust, or corrosive atmospheres without appropriate protective enclosures.

Key specifications

• Number of poles: 3
• Rated current: 20A
• Tripping characteristic: C-type
• Breaking capacity: 6kA
• Mounting type: DIN rail

Installation should be performed by a qualified professional in accordance with local electrical regulations. The device is mounted onto a standard DIN rail within a distribution board. Ensure that the supply power is disconnected before beginning the installation process. Once securely snapped onto the rail, connect the input and output cables to the corresponding terminals, ensuring all connections are tightened to the specified torque to prevent overheating.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that the 20A rated current matches the requirements of your circuit
• Ensure the 6kA breaking capacity is sufficient for your installation's prospective short-circuit current
• Confirm that the C-type tripping characteristic is appropriate for your connected loads
• Check available space in your distribution board for a 3-pole module

For optimal safety and performance, regularly inspect the circuit breaker for signs of wear or heat damage. Ensure that the electrical load does not consistently exceed the rated current to prevent nuisance tripping and extend the lifespan of the device.
