The designation "P" stands for Pole. A 1P (Single Pole) circuit breaker protects a single live wire, commonly used in standard 230V single-phase circuits. A 2P (Double Pole) breaker switches both live and neutral lines, offering complete isolation. A 3P (Triple Pole) breaker protects all three phases in a three-phase power supply system, typically used for heavy industrial machinery or commercial distribution panels.
The 10kA (10,000 Amperes) breaking capacity represents the maximum short-circuit current the circuit breaker can safely interrupt without sustaining damage or causing risk to the surrounding infrastructure. This high rating ensures robust safety performance for both industrial applications and high-demand commercial installations.
The OF10KA series MCBs are designed for protecting electrical installations against overloads and short circuits. They are widely utilized in residential distribution boxes, commercial build-outs, and industrial control panels where reliable circuit safety is critical.
Selection depends on the system voltage and load type. Choose 1P for basic single-phase branch circuits (lighting or small appliances). Use 2P for equipment requiring full dual-line disconnection or 240V single-phase loads. Select 3P for high-voltage three-phase motor circuits and primary heavy-duty equipment.
Yes, OF10KA series miniature circuit breakers are manufactured in accordance with standard IEC/EN international guidelines to guarantee reliable thermal-magnetic protection and electrical insulation properties across various operating environments.
