The 6KA rating denotes a 6,000 Ampere short-circuit breaking capacity. This indicates the maximum fault current that the circuit breaker can safely interrupt without experiencing permanent damage or compromising system safety.
A 1P (Single Pole) breaker switches and protects a single live phase wire in single-phase circuits. A 2P breaker controls both live and neutral lines simultaneously. A 4-Pole breaker isolates three phase lines along with the neutral wire, which is standard for complex three-phase power networks.
The OF6KA Series provides dual protection mechanisms: thermal protection against prolonged electrical overloads and magnetic protection against high-current short circuits, effectively shielding electrical wiring and connected appliances.
These breakers are ideal for integration into low-voltage distribution boards across residential buildings, commercial spaces, light industrial facilities, and OEM control panels requiring standard DIN-rail mounting.
For standard 230V residential branch circuits, 1P or 2P breakers are usually recommended. For 400V industrial equipment or primary main switches where full line and neutral disconnection is mandated, 4-Pole breakers should be selected.
