Why Choose the Lovato P1MB1PD01 Miniature Circuit Breaker?
The Lovato P1MB1PD01 is a compact and reliable single-pole miniature circuit breaker (MCB) designed to protect electrical circuits against overloads and short circuits. As part of the dependable Lovato P1MB series, it is suitable for industrial control panels, commercial distribution systems, machine-building applications and OEM electrical equipment.
This miniature circuit breaker features a Type D tripping characteristic, making it particularly suitable for electrical loads with high starting or inrush currents. Typical examples include transformers, solenoids, motors, power supplies and other inductive equipment that may cause conventional circuit breakers to trip during normal start-up conditions.
With a rated current of 1 A, a 10 kA short-circuit breaking capacity and a compact one-module format, the P1MB1PD01 provides dependable protection while minimising the space required inside an electrical enclosure. Its standard DIN rail mounting enables straightforward installation in control panels and distribution boards.

Reliable Protection for High-Inrush Electrical Loads
Miniature circuit breakers automatically disconnect electrical circuits when an overload or short circuit is detected. This helps protect cables, components and connected equipment from excessive current while reducing the risk of damage and unplanned downtime.
The Type D characteristic of the Lovato P1MB1PD01 permits a higher temporary inrush current before magnetic tripping occurs. This makes the breaker particularly useful for transformers, motors and inductive devices that draw a brief surge of current during energisation.
Typical Applications
- Industrial control and auxiliary circuits.
- Transformers and power supplies.
- Solenoids, contactor coils and inductive loads.
- Small motors with high starting currents.
- Machine-building and OEM equipment.
- Electrical control panels and distribution boards.
