Eaton xEffect FAZ Miniature Circuit Breaker, 1-Pole, 1 A, Type C, 415 V ac AC, 48 V DC, 10 kA Breaking Capacity

Looking to bag a breaking solution that also helps minimise system downtime? Check out this MCB from Eaton. It's a high selectivity unit so, if necessary, it can cut power using a built-in pre-fuse instead of its electromagnetic or thermal releases. This gives your circuit triple protection and minimises the need for resetting. Dual release mechanisms and type-C characteristics mean it offers overload and short-circuit protection to safely de-energise whenever your circuit's supplied with between five and ten times the 1A rated value. As a result, this is a practical choice for carrying the burden of high-load applications. You'll find MCBs like this installed in control panels, keeping watch for high surges.

• Instantaneous breaking means it acts without hesitation to protect you and your equipment

The MCB offers switching and breaking in line with European and American standards. Its IEC/EN 60947-2, IEC/EN 60898-1 and UL 1077 approvals mean you can trust it to trip currents up to 10kA without damage.
