1P (Single Pole) breakers switch and protect a single live wire, suitable for single-phase 230V circuits. 2P (Double Pole) breakers switch both live and neutral wires for added safety. 3P (Three Pole) breakers switch all three live phases, primarily designed for three-phase equipment and industrial power distribution systems.
The 6KA rating represents the breaking capacity of the circuit breaker. It means the device can safely interrupt short-circuit currents up to 6,000 Amperes without causing permanent damage or posing a fire hazard.
OF6KA Series 1P MCBs are widely used in residential lighting circuits, home socket outlets, and small single-phase appliances to protect against overload and short circuits.
A 3P circuit breaker should be selected when installing three-phase electrical machinery, heavy commercial equipment, or main distribution panels that require simultaneous isolation across all three active phases.
Yes, OF6KA Series MCBs feature standardized DIN-rail mounting, ensuring easy and secure installation across standard distribution boards and electrical enclosures.
