Eaton Miniature Circuit Breaker, 16A, 240V AC / 48V DC - xPole Series - 236426 PXL-C16/3
Protect your electrical circuits with this MCB (miniature circuit breaker) from Eaton. The device has 3 poles for use in 3-phase electrical systems such as industrial circuits powering motors. The type-C tripping characteristic and a current-limiting class of 3 mean this breaker protects cables and equipment from short circuits. Its DIN rail mounting clip locks it in position so it's easy to install and use in commercial and industrial applications. The toggle switches let you quickly make and break circuits, and the red and green indicators clearly show their status.
• Open-mouthed and twin-purpose terminals for easy and flexible connection to busbars • Recessed contact points make terminals finger-proof to improve safety in installation and maintenance • Modular design for straightforward customising of panel controls
Why should I use an MCB instead of a fuse?
An MCB is a more reliable way to protect your electrical circuit. It can also be reset rather than needing replacement each time a fault occurs. However, fuses are still useful for providing protection alongside wired safety devices.
