Overcurrent circuit breaker 6kA PL6-C25/1 286535

xPole Home series circuit breakers – reliable installation protection

This single-pole circuit breaker from Eaton's xPole Home series, with a rated current of 25A and C characteristic, is a fundamental element of electrical protection in every home. It provides effective protection of circuits against overload and short circuit, protecting electrical appliances and the installation. Its compact size (1 module wide) makes it easy to install in a distribution board.

This circuit breaker is designed for ease of use and reliability. The C characteristic allows it to react more slowly to short current surges, making it well-suited for starting devices with motors, such as refrigerators or washing machines. The rated breaking capacity of 6kA guarantees safety even in the event of high short-circuit currents.

Functionality and technical parameters

The PL6-C25/1 circuit breaker is designed to operate in installations with a rated voltage of 230V and a frequency of 50-60Hz. Its design meets the requirements of IEC/EN 60898-1, confirming its safety and compliance with applicable regulations. The ability to connect wires with a cross-section from 1 to 25 mm² provides flexibility during installation.

• Thanks to the breaking capacity of 6kA at 230V and 400V, the circuit breaker ensures effective disconnection of the circuit in the event of a short circuit.
• The C characteristic makes it ideal for protecting circuits with receivers generating inrush currents, such as motors.
• Compact dimensions – only 1 module wide – allow for efficient use of space in the distribution board.
• A wide range of operating temperatures from -25°C to +75°C enables installation in various environmental conditions.
• The IP20 degree of protection provides protection against finger contact, increasing safety.
• Compliance with IEC/EN 60898-1 guarantees product safety and quality.
• Installation flexibility is ensured by the possibility of connecting solid and stranded wires with a cross-section from 1 to 25 mm².

Installation and additional equipment

The circuit breaker is easy and intuitive to install thanks to the use of a DIN rail clip. The possibility of using additional accessories, such as auxiliary contacts or apparatus locks, allows you to adapt the circuit breaker's functionality to individual installation needs. The circuit breaker is powered arbitrarily (from the top or bottom), making it easier to integrate it into the existing electrical infrastructure.
