Reliable Four-Pole Circuit Protection
Miniature circuit breakers automatically disconnect an electrical circuit when excessive current is detected. This helps protect conductors, connected equipment and electrical installations from damage caused by overloads and short circuits.
The four-pole configuration of the Lovato P2MB4PC100 makes it particularly suitable for three-phase systems in which the neutral conductor must be switched together with the phase conductors. Its C curve response provides reliable protection while tolerating the moderate starting currents associated with many industrial and commercial loads.
Typical Applications
- Three-phase distribution boards with neutral conductors.
- Industrial control panels and switchboards.
- Commercial electrical distribution systems.
- Lighting and building-services circuits.
- Machinery and motor-related circuits.
- OEM automation and electrical equipment.
