Why Choose the Lovato P1MB1PD20 Miniature Circuit Breaker?
The Lovato P1MB1PD20 is a dependable single-pole miniature circuit breaker (MCB) designed to protect electrical circuits against overloads and short circuits in industrial, commercial and OEM installations. As part of the trusted Lovato P1MB series, it combines compact dimensions with robust performance for modern electrical distribution systems.
Featuring a Type D tripping characteristic, this MCB is ideal for circuits supplying equipment with high inrush currents, including motors, transformers, power supplies and inductive loads. The D-curve allows temporary starting currents without nuisance tripping while maintaining reliable fault protection.
With a rated current of 20 A, a 10 kA short-circuit breaking capacity and a compact one-module design, the P1MB1PD20 provides reliable protection while conserving valuable panel space. Standard 35 mm DIN rail mounting allows quick installation in electrical control panels and distribution boards.

Reliable Protection for High-Inrush Electrical Loads
Miniature circuit breakers automatically disconnect electrical circuits whenever overload or short-circuit conditions occur. This helps protect wiring, connected equipment and machinery from damage while reducing maintenance costs and minimising downtime.
The Type D characteristic allows substantially higher temporary starting currents before instantaneous magnetic tripping occurs. This makes the Lovato P1MB1PD20 particularly suitable for transformers, motors, solenoids and other inductive equipment where high inrush currents are expected.
Typical Applications
- Industrial control panels.
- Machine-building and OEM equipment.
- Motor and transformer circuits.
- Power supplies and inductive loads.
- Commercial electrical distribution boards.
- Automation systems.
