Power limiter ETIMAT T 1p 16A 002181073

Power limiter for pre-meter protection

The ETIMAT T 1P 16A power limiter is a device designed for mounting on a DIN rail in an installation distribution board. It serves as pre-meter protection, limiting the energy consumption of the customer and providing selective disconnection in relation to the overcurrent protection of the customer's Z4 circuit. It is an alternative to traditional selective circuit breakers, especially in the range of rated currents that it offers.

The limiter's construction is based on an overcurrent circuit breaker with an overload (thermal) release, without a short-circuit protection element. The possibility of sealing prevents access to the current clamps, increasing safety and reliability. Installation should be carried out so that the drive lever is accessible to the user, allowing self-re-engagement after any disconnection caused by exceeding the connection power.

Characteristics and application

ETIMAT T is an ideal solution for installations requiring power consumption limitation, e.g. in apartments or small retail outlets. It provides protection against overload and helps avoid uncontrolled energy consumption. Thanks to its construction and time-current characteristics, it works well with other protective devices, ensuring their selectivity.

• Pre-meter protection: Limits the contractually agreed power consumption by the customer.
• Selectivity: Ensures disconnection only in the event of exceeding the power limit, without affecting other circuits.
• Simple operation: Allows self-re-engagement by the user after disconnection due to exceeding the power.
• Safety: Sealed construction protects against unauthorized access to the clamps.

Technical specifications and compliance with standards

The ETIMAT T 1P 16A limiter is characterized by the following parameters:

• Rated continuous current (Iu): 16 A
• Rated conditional short-circuit current (Iq): 6 kA
• Rated voltage (Un): 230/400 V AC
