Overcurrent circuit breaker 6kA HN-B40/3 194885

Overcurrent switch for electrical installation protection

This three-pole overcurrent switch from Eaton's xPole Home series (model HN-B40/3) is a reliable device designed to protect electrical installations from the effects of overloads and short circuits. The breaking capacity of 6kA guarantees effective disconnection of the circuit in the event of a failure, minimizing the risk of damage and fire. Characteristic B provides a quick response to sudden current increases, making it an ideal choice for protecting socket and lighting circuits.

Functionality and application

The HN-B40/3 switch is designed for easy mounting on a DIN TH 35 rail. It has double terminals – both screw and lift – which facilitates the connection of wires with a cross-section from 1 to 25 mm². The versatility of the device allows for power supply from above or below. The rated voltage of 230V and the ability to operate with DC voltage up to 48V DC expand its range of applications. It is a solid safety element in every home, ensuring the safety of using electrical appliances.

Key features and benefits

• High breaking capacity (6kA): effectively interrupts the circuit in the event of a short circuit, protecting the installation and devices.
• Characteristic B: provides a quick response to short-term current surges, ideal for socket and lighting circuits.
