Overcurrent circuit breaker, 6kA BKN series 1P 20A B characteristic BKN 1P B20A

Safety and reliability in your installation

This single-pole circuit breaker of the BKN series, with a rated current of 20A, is a key element in protecting electrical circuits. Designed by LS ELECTRIC, it provides effective protection against overload and short circuit, minimizing the risk of damage and fire. Characteristic B makes it ideal for circuits with moderate inrush currents – it will find application in lighting, sockets and other typical home installations.

Construction and operation

The BKN 1P B20A circuit breaker is characterized by a compact design, which facilitates installation in electrical distribution boards. The rated current of 20A means that the breaker will trip when the current exceeds this value, cutting off the power and protecting the installation. The short-circuit breaking capacity of 6kA guarantees safe interruption of the circuit in the event of a short circuit. Characteristic B means that the breaker reacts quickly to overloads, but tolerates short-term current surges – which is important when connecting devices with motors or other elements generating inrush current.

Applications and benefits

• Overload protection: Protects wires and devices from damage caused by excessive current draw.
• Short-circuit protection: Quickly cuts off the power in the event of a short circuit, minimizing the risk of fire and equipment damage.
• Wide application: Ideal for protecting lighting circuits, socket circuits and other electrical installations in residential and commercial buildings.
• Compact dimensions: Allow for easy installation even in tight distribution boards.
• Reliability: Product from a renowned manufacturer LS ELECTRIC, guaranteeing high quality and long life.
• Fast response time: Characteristic B ensures a quick response to overloads, protecting the installation from permanent damage.
