Lovato P2MB2PC100 two-pole miniature circuit breaker with 100 A rated current, C tripping curve, 10 kA breaking capacity and 230/400 V AC operating voltage.
£147.79
The Lovato P2MB2PC100 is a high-performance two-pole miniature circuit breaker (MCB) designed to provide dependable protection against overloads and short circuits in commercial and industrial electrical installations. As part of the Lovato P2 MB modular protection range, it delivers reliable thermal-magnetic protection for distribution boards, machinery and control panels.
With a 100 A rated current, C tripping characteristic and 10 kA short-circuit breaking capacity, the P2MB2PC100 is ideal for circuits supplying equipment with moderate inrush currents such as motors, transformers and lighting systems. The linked two-pole mechanism disconnects both conductors simultaneously, improving circuit isolation and safety.
The breaker occupies 3 DIN modules, operates on 230/400 V AC systems or up to 125 V DC, and mounts directly onto a standard 35 mm DIN rail. Designed in accordance with IEC/EN 60947-2 and UL 1077, it is suitable for demanding industrial environments.
The Lovato P2MB2PC100 continuously monitors current flowing through both protected poles and disconnects the electrical supply whenever overload or short-circuit conditions occur. Its thermal element protects against prolonged overloads, while the magnetic trip mechanism provides rapid disconnection during severe fault conditions.
Its C curve characteristic makes the breaker suitable for applications including motors, transformers, HVAC equipment, industrial machinery and commercial distribution systems where moderate starting currents are expected.
