Circuit breaker 6kA HN-C40/3 194895

Safety and reliability in your electrical installation

Eaton HN-C40/3 circuit breaker is a key element in protecting electrical installations in residential and commercial buildings. Designed to protect against the effects of overloads and short circuits, it ensures safe and reliable operation of circuits. This three-pole circuit breaker with a rated current of 40A and a breaking capacity of 6kA guarantees peace of mind for both professional installers and end users.

Functionality and installation

The Eaton HN-C40/3 circuit breaker is characterized by its universal mounting on a TH35 DIN rail, which facilitates integration with existing distribution boards. Double terminals – rail and screw – provide flexibility in connecting wires with a cross-section from 1 to 25 mm². The power supply can be connected from both sides of the device, which further simplifies the installation process. Compact dimensions (width of 3 modules) allow for optimal use of space in the distribution board.

Characteristics and application

The C characteristic of the circuit breaker means that it reacts more slowly to short-term current surges, which is particularly important when connecting devices with electric motors or other loads with high inrush current – induction cookers, pumps or air conditioners. The rated insulation voltage Ui is 440V, and the rated impulse withstand voltage Uimp is 4kV. The device meets the requirements of the PN-EN 60898-1 standard, ensuring compliance with applicable safety regulations. The circuit breaker is designed to operate at temperatures from -25°C to 75°C and at a frequency of 50-60 Hz. The IP20 degree of protection provides protection against finger contact.

This circuit breaker offers effective protection against overload and short circuit, and its universal mounting on a TH35 DIN rail facilitates installation. Flexible wire connection thanks to rail and screw terminals (up to 25 mm²) and the possibility of power supply from two sides increase ease of use. The C characteristic makes it ideal for devices with high inrush current, and compliance with the PN-EN 60898-1 standard guarantees safety.

The xPole Home series from Eaton is synonymous with safety and reliability in modern electrical installations. By choosing the HN-C40/3 circuit breaker, you are investing in peace of mind and protection for your home or business.
