Eaton xEffect xEffect Miniature Circuit Breaker, 1-Pole, 16 A, Type C, 400 V AC, 6 kA Breaking Capacity

Block the path of faulty currents in your circuit with this MCB from Eaton. When it senses hazards, including short circuits or current overload, it swiftly cuts off the power supply. When the hazard is cleared, reset it with a flip of its toggle switch. A built-in contact indicator is on hand to show the unit's status, letting you configure it at a glance. Its type-C tripping characteristic means this breaker handles between five and ten times its 16A current rating. This means it's up to the challenge of shielding high-power systems such as lighting fixtures.

• Mechanical lifespan of more than 10,000 operations for durable performance

Thanks to its twin-purpose terminals, you can insert wires through the top or bottom of the MCB, giving you a free hand when setting up the cable connection.

You can mount this unit by simply clipping it onto a DIN rail, so there's no need for tools.
