16A MCB Type B Single Pole Circuit Breaker 6kA Single Module for Residential and Light Commercial

The 16A MCB Type B Single Pole 6kA Single Module is a compact circuit breaker designed for reliable overcurrent protection in residential and light commercial wiring. It provides fast, predictable protection in a standard 1-module space, making panel upgrades straightforward.

• Current Rating: 16A nominal current, suitable for general lighting and small appliance circuits.
• Trip Curve: Type B magnetic trip characteristic, designed to respond quickly to moderate overloads (typically 3–5x the rated current) for prompt fault clearance.
• Breaking Capacity: 6kA breaking capacity (Icn), ensuring safe interruption of faults at typical distribution voltages.
• Pole Configuration: Single Pole design for single-phase circuit protection.
• Module Width: Single Module width, allowing easy placement in standard distribution boards and space-efficient panel layouts.
• Applications: Ideal for protecting domestic lighting, outlets, and small-power circuits within residential or light commercial panels.

This MCB helps reduce risk by quickly interrupting fault currents, protecting wires from overheating and preventing damage to connected devices. Its Type B curve is well-suited for everyday electrical loads where short surges can occur, providing reliable protection without excessive nuisance tripping. The 6kA capacity offers a robust safety margin for typical home and small-office electrical systems, while the compact 1-module form supports clean, organized panel design and easy replacements when upgrading or expanding circuits.
