Why Choose the Lovato P1MB1MB10 Miniature Circuit Breaker?
The Lovato P1MB1MB10 is a compact 1P+N miniature circuit breaker designed to protect low-voltage electrical circuits against overloads and short circuits. Manufactured by Lovato Electric, it combines the phase and neutral poles within a space-saving single DIN module, making it ideal for distribution boards, control panels and machinery where enclosure space is limited.
With a rated current of 10 A, a type B tripping characteristic and a rated short-circuit breaking capacity of 6 kA, the P1MB1MB10 is suitable for circuits with low inrush currents. Typical applications include lighting, control circuits, resistive loads and general electrical distribution.
The compact 1P+N arrangement disconnects both the protected phase conductor and neutral conductor through one coordinated device. Its DIN rail mounting format supports straightforward installation, while compliance with recognised IEC and EN standards makes it a dependable choice for professional panel builders, electrical contractors and OEM machinery manufacturers.

Reliable Protection for Low-Current Circuits
Miniature circuit breakers automatically disconnect a circuit when excessive current is detected. This helps protect conductors, terminals and connected electrical equipment against overheating and damage caused by overloads or short circuits.
The type B operating characteristic of the Lovato P1MB1MB10 is intended for circuits where the expected starting current is relatively low. Its compact 1P+N design also provides simultaneous phase and neutral disconnection without requiring the width normally associated with a conventional two-module circuit breaker.
Typical Applications
- Lighting circuits.
- Electrical control circuits.
- Residential and commercial distribution boards.
- Industrial control panels.
- Automation and machinery circuits.
- Resistive electrical loads.
- OEM equipment and machine building.
