Why Choose the Lovato P1MB3PC01 Miniature Circuit Breaker?
The Lovato P1MB3PC01 is a compact and dependable three-pole miniature circuit breaker (MCB) designed to protect electrical circuits against overloads and short circuits. As part of the established Lovato P1MB modular circuit protection range, it is suitable for industrial control panels, commercial distribution boards and OEM machinery requiring reliable protection for low-current three-phase circuits.
This miniature circuit breaker combines a 1 A rated current, C tripping characteristic and 10 kA short-circuit breaking capacity. The C curve characteristic allows the breaker to tolerate moderate starting currents while still providing rapid disconnection during overload and short-circuit conditions.
Designed for use on electrical systems rated up to 230/400 V AC, the P1MB3PC01 occupies three DIN modules and mounts directly onto a standard 35 mm DIN rail. Its thermal-magnetic operating mechanism, compact construction and compliance with recognised international standards make it a practical choice for professional electrical installations.

Reliable Protection for Low-Current Three-Phase Circuits
Miniature circuit breakers automatically disconnect electrical circuits when excessive current is detected. Thermal protection responds to sustained overload conditions, while magnetic protection provides rapid operation during a short circuit. This combined action helps protect conductors, control equipment and connected electrical devices.
The Lovato P1MB3PC01 disconnects and protects all three poles simultaneously. Its C curve characteristic makes it suitable for circuits containing equipment with moderate starting currents, including control transformers, contactor coils, solenoids and industrial automation components.
Typical Applications
- Industrial control panels and switchboards.
- Three-phase control and auxiliary circuits.
- Control transformers and power supplies.
- Contactor, relay and solenoid circuits.
- Industrial automation equipment.
- Commercial electrical distribution boards.
- OEM machinery and production equipment.
- Monitoring and instrumentation circuits.
