Overcurrent circuit breaker, 6kA series BKN 2P 6A characteristic D BKN 2P D6A

Overcurrent circuit breaker BKN 2P 6A is a reliable protection for electrical installations, designed for both home and commercial use. It is characterized by high efficiency in protecting against overloads and short circuits, ensuring safe operation and long-term operation of devices.

Characteristics and application

This two-pole (2P) circuit breaker with a rated current of 6A and characteristic D is designed to protect circuits with inductive loads, such as motors, transformers or refrigeration units. Characteristic D means a delayed response to short-term current surges, which allows for trouble-free starting of devices requiring high starting current. This minimizes the risk of unnecessary tripping of the circuit breaker during normal operation of these devices.

The BKN 2P D6A circuit breaker is used in:

• Protection of lighting circuits with inductive elements (e.g. fluorescent lamps).
• Securing sockets in utility rooms and workshops.
• Electrical installations in residential, commercial and industrial buildings.
• Protection of electrical devices with moderate power motors.

Construction and parameters

The circuit breaker is made of high-quality materials, which guarantees its durability and reliability. It has a short-circuit breaking capacity of 6kA at 400V, which ensures effective protection of the installation in the event of a short circuit. The two-pole design allows you to disconnect both phase conductors simultaneously, ensuring complete safety during maintenance or repair of the installation. This circuit breaker complies with applicable safety standards, confirming its high quality and reliability.

It is worth remembering that choosing the right overcurrent circuit breaker is crucial for the proper functioning and safety of the entire electrical installation. The D characteristic makes this model particularly recommended for applications with inductive loads - where standard circuit breakers (B or C) might trip too often.
