Overcurrent circuit breaker 6kA PL6-C10/1 286531

Reliable protection of electrical installations – circuit breaker PL6-C10/1

This single-pole circuit breaker with characteristic C is a key element in protecting electrical circuits in residential and commercial buildings. Designed by Eaton, it provides effective protection against overloads and short circuits, minimizing the risk of damage to the installation and preventing fires. The PL6-C10/1 circuit breaker is ideal for protecting lighting circuits, socket outlets and devices with a characteristic inrush current, such as motors or transformers.

Characteristics and application

The PL6-C10/1 circuit breaker is characterized by a rated current of 10A and a short-circuit breaking capacity of up to 6kA at 230V and 400V. Characteristic C means that the circuit breaker reacts with a delay to short-term current increases, allowing for trouble-free starting of devices with motors or other elements generating high inrush current. Mounting is on a TH35 rail, which ensures easy installation and integration with existing modular equipment. Its compact dimensions (1 module wide) allow for optimal use of space in the switchgear.

Key features and benefits

• High reliability: Made of high-quality materials, guarantees long-lasting and trouble-free operation.
• Wide range of applications: Ideal for protecting lighting, sockets and devices with inrush current.
• Easy installation: Compatible with standard TH35 rail – installation is quick and easy.
• Compact dimensions: Occupies only 1 module in the switchgear, saving valuable space.
• Compliance with standards: Meets the requirements of EN 60898 and IEC 60947-2 standards, ensuring safety of use.
• Overload and short circuit protection: Protects the circuit from damage caused by excessive load or short circuit – as with any circuit breaker in this class.
• Characteristic C: Allows for trouble-free starting of devices with motors or other elements generating high inrush current.
• Protection class IP20: Provides protection against finger contact, increasing safety of use.

The PL6-C10/1 circuit breaker is a solid and effective solution for every installer and user looking for reliable electrical protection. It provides peace of mind knowing that the installation is safe and protected against potential failures.
