Circuit Breaker Single 25A

Description

Circuit Breaker Single 25A is a commonly used electrical protection device with the following features:

Specifications:

1. Type: Single-Pole Circuit Breaker
   • Protects one circuit (typically the live wire in single-phase systems).
   • Commonly installed in residential and commercial distribution boards.
2. Current Rating: 20 Amperes (A)
   • Designed to handle up to 25A of current.
   • Trips to disconnect the circuit if the current exceeds this limit, protecting against overloads or short circuits.
3. Voltage Rating:
   • Typically rated for 230V-240V AC for single-phase systems, depending on regional standards.
4. Trip Curve:
   • Defines the breaker’s response to overcurrent:
     • Type B: Trips at 3-5 times the rated current (e.g., suitable for residential lighting or socket outlets).
     • Type C: Trips at 5-10 times the rated current (used for circuits with higher inrush currents like motors or air conditioners).
     • Type D: Trips at 10-20 times the rated current (for heavy industrial equipment with high inrush current).
5. Mounting:
   • DIN rail-mounted, fitting into standard electrical panels.
6. Material:
   • Typically made with durable, heat-resistant plastic and reliable internal components for long-lasting performance.
7. Brand Variability:
   • Available from various manufacturers, including Schneider Electric, Siemens, ABB, NUR, and others.

Applications:

• Residential: Protecting appliances such as washing machines, microwaves, or water heaters.
• Commercial: Securing circuits powering equipment, tools, or lighting.
• Industrial: Low-power machinery or circuits requiring moderate current capacity.

Key Considerations:

• Ensure compatibility with the load type and local electrical codes.
• Confirm the required trip curve (B, C, or D) for your application.
• Verify proper installation by a licensed electrician.
