Overcurrent circuit breaker, 6kA series BKN 2P 32A B characteristic BKN 2P B32A

Overcurrent circuit breaker of the BKN series is a reliable protection for electrical installations, designed for both home and commercial use. Model 2P B32A, with characteristic B, effectively protects circuits against overload and short circuit.

Protection and application

The BKN 2P B32A circuit breaker is designed to protect electrical circuits with a rated current of up to 32A. Characteristic B means that the circuit breaker reacts quickly to current increase, but is more tolerant to short-term surges, making it an ideal solution for circuits with devices with high inrush current – for example, motors. Use in building installations allows for ensuring safety and protection against potential failures.

Construction and mounting

The circuit breaker is mounted on a standard 35mm wide DIN rail. Compact dimensions (17.8mm width per pole) allow for easy installation even in tight distribution boards. Availability of screw and lug terminals provides flexibility in connecting wires with a cross-section of up to 25mm². The two-pole design (2P) allows for protecting two phase conductors simultaneously.

Characteristic features and compliance with standards

The circuit breaker meets the requirements of IEC 60898 standard, which guarantees its high quality and reliability. It has CCC, KEMA CB, SABS, SEMKO CB and UL 1077 certificates confirming its safety and compliance with international standards. Designed to operate at temperatures from -5°C to +40°C. Provides effective protection against overload and short circuit thanks to the use of a thermal-magnetic release. Its short-circuit breaking capacity is 10kA, ensuring a quick response in the event of a failure.
