Why Choose the IMO UB10B1010A 10 A Type B Miniature Circuit Breaker?
The IMO UB10B1010A is a compact and dependable single-pole miniature circuit breaker (MCB) designed to protect low-voltage electrical circuits against overloads and short circuits. Manufactured by IMO Precision Controls, it provides reliable circuit protection for commercial, industrial and control-panel applications.
This circuit breaker features a Type B tripping characteristic, making it suitable for circuits with relatively low inrush currents, including lighting, resistive loads, control equipment and general-purpose distribution circuits. Its resettable switching mechanism restores protection quickly after a fault has been identified and corrected, removing the need to replace a fuse.
With a rated current of 10 A, a 10 kA short-circuit breaking capacity and a space-saving single-module format, the UB10B1010A is ideal for installation in electrical distribution boards, machinery panels and industrial control cabinets. Standard DIN rail mounting enables quick integration with compatible modular protective equipment.
