Overcurrent circuit breaker 25kA, In=20A, characteristic B. 1-pole. AZ-B20 174480

Electrical installation protection with Eaton AZ-B20 circuit breaker

This single-pole circuit breaker from Eaton's AZ series, with a rated current of 20A and B characteristic, is a reliable solution for protecting electrical circuits. It provides effective protection against the effects of overloads and short circuits, which translates to safety and longer installation life. This circuit breaker is particularly recommended for use in home, office and industrial installations.

Characteristics and application

The AZ-B20 circuit breaker is characterized by a high short-circuit breaking capacity – up to 25kA at 230V and 400V. The B characteristic means that the circuit breaker reacts quickly to short-term overloads, but allows for momentary current surges, e.g. when starting electric motors. This makes it ideal for protecting circuits with receivers with high starting current. The rated impulse withstand voltage of 4kV further increases its resistance to sudden voltage changes.

The circuit breaker is easy and intuitive to install – a width of 1.5 modules allows it to be easily placed in a standard distribution board. The IP20 degree of protection provides basic protection against accidental contact and ingress of solid objects. The possibility of expansion with additional accessories allows you to adapt the functionality of the circuit breaker to individual installation needs.

Solid construction and compliance with standards

The Eaton AZ-B20 circuit breaker is made of high-quality materials, which guarantees its durability and reliability. It meets the requirements of overvoltage category III and pollution degree 2, which confirms its versatility and possibility of use in various environmental conditions. Energy limitation class 3 provides adequate protection in the event of an electric arc. The circuit breaker also has railway approvals, which proves its high quality and compliance with strict safety standards.
