Circuit breaker 6kA PL6-C13/3 286600

Reliable protection for electrical installations – circuit breaker PL6-C13/3

This three-pole circuit breaker with characteristic C is a key safety element in every electrical installation. Designed for both home and commercial use, it provides effective protection against overloads and short circuits. Its compact size (3 module width) allows for easy installation in distribution boards.

Functionality and technical parameters

The PL6-C13/3 circuit breaker is designed for reliability and safety. Characteristic C means that the breaker reacts more slowly to short-term current surges, which is particularly important when connecting devices with motors or other loads generating inrush current. The rated current of 13A makes it ideal for protecting circuits with medium loads. The rated short-circuit breaking capacity of 6kA guarantees effective disconnection of the circuit in the event of a serious failure.

• Overload protection: Protects wires and devices from damage caused by excessive current draw.
• Short-circuit protection: Immediately interrupts the circuit in the event of a short circuit, minimizing the risk of fire and equipment damage.
• Characteristic C: Allows for safe starting of devices with motors and other loads generating inrush current without unnecessary tripping of the breaker.
• Mounting: Easy mounting on TH35 rail (standard mounting rail in distribution boards).
• Width: Occupies only 3 modules in the distribution board, saving valuable space.
• Rated voltage: 400V – standard voltage in most electrical installations.
• IP20 protection degree: Provides protection against accidental contact, but does not protect against water ingress.

Construction and application

The PL6-C13/3 circuit breaker is made of high-quality materials, guaranteeing its durability and reliability. It meets the requirements of EN 60898 standards and has energy limitation class 3 and surge category III, confirming its compliance with European safety standards. Designed for use in AC 50/60 Hz circuits. The possibility of additional equipment allows adaptation of the breaker to specific installation needs. Wire cross-section from 1 to 25 mm² ensures compatibility with various types of installation wires. Operating temperature from -25°C to +75°C allows its use in a wide range of environmental conditions.
