Circuit breaker 6kA PL6-C6/2 286564

Overcurrent switch – reliable installation protection

This two-pole overcurrent switch from Eaton's xPole Home series, with a rated current of 6A and C characteristic, is a key element of every safe electrical installation. It provides effective protection against overload and short circuit, protecting both devices and the electrical installation in the building. The rated breaking capacity of 6kA guarantees a quick response in the event of a failure.

Functionality and application

The PL6-C6/2 switch is designed to protect circuits with devices with moderate inrush current – the C characteristic allows it to react more slowly to short current surges, therefore it tolerates starting devices with a motor well. It is ideal for lighting circuits, socket circuits and for protecting household appliances. The two-pole design provides full protection of the phase and neutral.

• Versatility: Possibility of mounting on TH35 rail, both from above and below, facilitates installation in various switchboard configurations.
• Compatibility: Width of 2 modules allows for efficient use of space in the switchboard.
• Solid construction: Made of high-quality materials, ensures long-lasting and reliable operation.
• Safety: Energy limitation class 3 and surge category 3 guarantee a high level of safety.
• Adaptation to working conditions: The switch retains its properties in a wide range of ambient temperatures (-25°C to +75°C).
• Connections: Connections are available for solid and stranded wires with a cross-section from 1 to 25 mm², which provides flexibility when selecting wires.

Technical specifications and compliance with standards

The switch meets the requirements of EN 60898 standard, which confirms its safety and reliability. It has a rated voltage of 400V and a rated insulation voltage Ui of 440V. The rated impulse withstand voltage Uimp is 4kV. The degree of protection IP20 provides protection against accidental contact. The device has certificates of compliance with applicable industry standards, which guarantees its correct operation and safety.
