Crabtree C16 10kA 1P MCB (1 Module Width)

This Miniature Circuit Breaker, is a thermal-magnetic current limiting type, having a compact construction which has been achieved by not only minimising the number of parts but also the number of welded joints and connections. Critical material selection ensures reliability and durability. The MCB has an easy to operate handle with a trip-free toggle mechanism so even when the handle is held in the on position the MCB is free to trip. When the current flowing through the MCB reaches a predetermined level, the solenoid directly pulls in the plunger which forcibly separates the contacts and simultaneously releases the trip mechanism. Back-up protection is required only if the prospective short circuit current at the point of installation exceeds the breaking capacity of the MCB. When providing back-up protection consideration must be given to discrimination between the MCB and fuse. · · · C curve trip characteristic (5-10In) · · 10kA to BS EN 60898-1 (15kA to BS EN 60947-2) @ 240V AC · · Single pole MCB · · 10kA Fault Rating · · Energy limiting Class 3 · · Compliant with BS EN 60898 and EN 60947-2
