Product Description
SB204M-C0.5 Miniature Circuit Breaker - 4P - C - 0.5 A
System pro M compact SB200M Miniature Circuit Breakers are current limiting. They have two different tripping mechanisms, the delayed thermal tripping mechanism for overload protection and the electromechanic tripping mechanism for short circuit protection. They are available in different characteristics (B,C,D), configurations (1P,1P+N,2P,3P,3P+N,4P), breaking capacities (up to 10 kA at 240/415 V AC) and rated currents (up to 63A). All MCBs of the product range SB200M comply with IS/IEC 60898-1, allowing the use for residential, commercial and industrial applications.
