Overcurrent circuit breaker, 2P, C characteristic, 13A, 6kA, AC | S202-C13 2CDS252001R0134

Two-pole overcurrent circuit breaker with C characteristic is a reliable protection for electrical installations, designed for both home and professional use. Model S202-C13, with a rated current of 13A and a short-circuit interrupting capacity of 6kA, provides effective protection against overloads and short circuits in electrical circuits.

Protection and Application

This circuit breaker is ideal for protecting lighting circuits, socket outlets, and devices with inductive or capacitive load characteristics. The C characteristic means that the circuit breaker reacts more slowly to short-term current surges, which is particularly important when starting electric motors or other devices generating high starting currents. This minimizes the risk of unnecessary tripping of the circuit during normal operation. The short-circuit interrupting capacity of 6kA guarantees safe disconnection of the circuit in the event of a serious failure.

Construction and Installation

The circuit breaker is designed for mounting on a DIN rail, which facilitates its installation and replacement. Compact dimensions (2 module width) allow for efficient use of space in the distribution board. The solid construction ensures long-lasting and reliable operation in various environmental conditions – from -25°C to 55°C. The IP20 degree of protection protects against touching with fingers and against the ingress of solid objects larger than 12.5 mm. Wires can be connected both solid (up to 35 mm²) and stranded (up to 25 mm²).

Key Product Features

• C Characteristic: Provides optimal protection for circuits with inductive and capacitive loads, allowing for safe starting of devices such as motors or transformers.
