Why Choose the Chint NBH8-40-B25 Miniature Circuit Breaker?

The Chint NBH8-40-B25 is a compact and reliable 25 A miniature circuit breaker (MCB) designed to provide overload and short-circuit protection for low voltage electrical circuits. As part of the Chint NBH8-40 series, it is suitable for residential, commercial and light industrial power distribution applications where dependable circuit protection and safe isolation are required.

This MCB features a B curve tripping characteristic, making it well suited to general electrical circuits with low inrush current, including lighting circuits, small power distribution and resistive loads. Its compact 1P+N configuration helps protect the live conductor while providing convenient switching of both live and neutral within a single modular device.

With a rated current of 25 A and a 230/240 V AC supply rating, the NBH8-40-B25 is designed for use in final distribution boards and consumer unit-style installations. Its DIN rail mounting format allows quick and secure installation in electrical panels while maintaining a neat, professional layout.

Key Advantages

  • Compact 25 A miniature circuit breaker for final circuit protection.
  • B curve tripping characteristic suitable for low inrush current circuits.
  • 1P+N configuration for live and neutral switching in one device.
  • Provides protection against overload and short-circuit faults.
  • Designed for 230/240 V AC electrical distribution systems.
  • DIN rail mounting for fast installation in distribution boards and control panels.

Key Features

  • Chint NBH8-40 miniature circuit breaker series.
  • 25 A rated current.
  • B curve trip characteristic.
  • 1P+N pole configuration.
  • 230/240 V AC rated operational voltage.
  • Protection against overload and short-circuit currents.
  • Suitable for isolation and circuit switching.
  • 35 mm DIN rail mounting for panel installation.

Reliable Circuit Protection for Electrical Distribution

Miniature circuit breakers such as the Chint NBH8-40-B25 automatically disconnect a circuit when overload or short-circuit conditions occur. This helps protect wiring, connected equipment and electrical installations from damage caused by excessive current.

The B curve trip profile is typically used where starting currents are relatively low, making this device suitable for lighting circuits, socket circuits, small distribution loads and similar applications. Its compact 1P+N construction makes it ideal for modern distribution boards where space-saving protection is required.

Typical Applications

  • Residential consumer units and distribution boards.
  • Commercial electrical distribution panels.
  • Lighting circuits and small power circuits.
  • Final circuit protection in low voltage installations.
  • Control panels and auxiliary distribution circuits.
  • General electrical isolation and switching applications.
