Overcurrent circuit breaker 6kA HN-C40/1 194835

Safety and Reliability in Your Electrical Installation

The Eaton HN-C40/1 circuit breaker is a key element protecting electrical circuits in residential and commercial buildings. Designed for reliable protection against the effects of overloads and short circuits, it provides peace of mind for both installers and end-users. The device is characterized by a high breaking capacity of 6kA, which guarantees effective disconnection of the circuit in the event of a failure.

Design and Installation – Simplicity and Functionality

The HN-C40/1 circuit breaker is designed for easy mounting on a standard DIN TH-35 rail. Its compact width of 1 module (17.7 mm) allows for optimal use of space in the distribution board. Dual terminals – both screw and busbar – facilitate the connection of wires with a cross-section from 1 to 25 mm², providing flexibility during installation. Power can be supplied from both sides of the device, further increasing installation convenience. Made of high-quality plastic, the circuit breaker provides good insulation and safety.

Characteristics and Application – Protection Tailored to Your Needs

The Eaton HN-C40/1 circuit breaker has a C characteristic, which means it is ideal for protecting circuits with devices with higher inrush currents, such as LED lighting, induction cookers, or motors. The rated current of 40A makes it suitable for protecting socket circuits, lighting circuits, and RTV and household appliances. The rated voltage of 230V AC and the rated insulation voltage Ui of 440V ensure compatibility with most electrical installations. The IP20 degree of protection protects against contact with fingers and solid objects. The device meets the requirements of IEC/EN 60898-1 standards and has a surge category III, which guarantees resistance to interference in the electrical network. The ambient temperature in operating conditions is in the range of -25°C to 75°C, which allows it to be used in various environmental conditions.
