Overcurrent circuit breaker, 6kA series BKN 2P 32A characteristic C BKN 2P C32A

Overcurrent switch – reliable protection for your installation

The BKN series installation switch is a key element protecting electrical circuits against overload and short circuit. The 2P model with a rated current of 32A and C characteristic provides effective protection in domestic and industrial installations. Designed for durability and reliability, the BKN switch is an investment in safety and peace of mind.

Characteristics and application

The BKN 2P C32A switch is characterized by a C characteristic, which means it is designed to protect circuits with devices generating inrush currents during start-up – such as motors, transformers or heating devices. Thanks to this, the switch does not switch off unnecessarily during short-term current surges, but effectively reacts to overloads and short circuits. It is ideal for protecting lighting, socket outlets and electrical circuits powering household appliances.

Advantages and benefits

• High breaking capacity: 6kA – ensures effective disconnection of the circuit in the event of a short circuit, minimizing the risk of damage and fire.
• C characteristic: ideal for protecting circuits with devices with high starting current, preventing false tripping.
• Two-pole design (2P): ensures disconnection of both phase and neutral, increasing safety.
• Compliance with standards: meets the requirements of IEC 60898 and IEC 60947-2 standards, guaranteeing safety and reliability.
• Compact dimensions: facilitate mounting in electrical switchboards with limited space.
• Durable construction: ensures long life and resistance to environmental conditions.

Installation and operation

The installation of the BKN switch is simple and intuitive, and the two-pole connection provides full circuit protection. The switch is designed for mounting on a TH35 rail (standard rail). Before installation, make sure that the power supply is switched off. Regular checking of the technical condition of the switch will ensure its correct operation for a long time. Remember to choose the appropriate cross-section of the wires leading to the switch – it should be adapted to the rated current of the device.
