Eaton xEffect MCB, 1P, 1A Curve S, 230V AC, 60V DC, 10 kA Breaking Capacity

Do you need a reliable way to stop electrical faults from damaging your hardware? To protect downstream devices, this miniature circuit breaker from Eaton trips when it detects overcurrent or short circuits. It has type-S tripping characteristics, so breaks the circuit if the current reaches 13 to 17 times its 1A rating. This makes it a suitable option for devices like electric motors where surges are expected. With its 10kA switching capacity, the breaker safely stops large loads and ensures effective circuit protection. Use this unit for additional protection in your power distribution networks.

• Low heat loss of 1.6W minimises energy consumption for efficient protection
• Minimum electrical lifespan of 10,000 cycles for a long-lasting safety device
• Mounts onto industry-standard DIN rails for easy installation
• IP20 rating indicates protection against solid objects larger than 12.5mm, such as fingers, for safe handling

During a short circuit, there's a sudden large spike in current. With overcurrent, there's a lower level of excess current over a sustained time period.

This unit conveniently resets with a front-facing toggle switch, so downtime is minimised.
