Live Electrical CB306C 3 Pole 6A C Curve 10kA MCB
The Live Electrical CB306C 3 Pole 6A C Curve 10kA MCB is a bi-directional miniature circuit breaker designed for suitable three-phase AC installations. With a 6A current rating and 10kA breaking capacity, it provides overload and short-circuit protection for lower-current commercial and industrial circuits.
Features and applications
The CB306C features a C curve thermal-magnetic tripping characteristic, making it suitable for selected electrical equipment with moderate starting currents. Its instantaneous magnetic trip range is typically five to ten times the rated current, offering greater inrush tolerance than a B curve breaker. Potential applications include appropriately designed three-phase control circuits, small motors and inductive equipment.
This three-pole device provides linked switching across all three phases and occupies three standard DIN rail modules. Its 54mm-wide housing mounts onto a 35mm DIN rail within compatible electrical distribution equipment.
Rated for 230/400V AC operation, the CB306C features IP20 protection and meets BS IEC/EN 60898 requirements. Circuit design must account for cable ratings, prospective fault current and required disconnection times before selecting the protective device.
