Why Choose the IMO UB10C1013A 13 A Type C Miniature Circuit Breaker?
The IMO UB10C1013A is a compact and dependable single-pole miniature circuit breaker (MCB) designed to protect low-voltage electrical circuits against overload and short-circuit conditions. Manufactured by IMO Precision Controls, it is suitable for industrial control panels, automation systems, OEM machinery and commercial electrical distribution applications.
Featuring a Type C tripping characteristic, the UB10C1013A is designed for circuits that experience moderate temporary inrush currents during normal operation. This makes it suitable for equipment such as transformers, contactors, solenoids, switched-mode power supplies, lighting circuits and small motors. Its thermal-magnetic operating mechanism provides sustained overload protection together with rapid short-circuit interruption.
With a rated current of 13 A, a high 10 kA short-circuit breaking capacity and a space-saving single-pole configuration, the IMO UB10C1013A provides reliable circuit protection while simplifying installation. Its modular housing is designed for straightforward mounting on a standard DIN rail inside electrical distribution boards, machinery cabinets and industrial control panels.

Reliable Protection for Industrial Electrical Circuits
Miniature circuit breakers such as the IMO UB10C1013A automatically disconnect the electrical supply when excessive current is detected. The thermal trip element responds to prolonged overload conditions, while the magnetic mechanism rapidly interrupts high-current short circuits to help protect cables, equipment and connected components.
The Type C operating characteristic enables the circuit breaker to tolerate moderate temporary inrush currents without unnecessary tripping. This makes the UB10C1013A suitable for control equipment, transformers, contactors, power supplies, lighting circuits and small inductive loads requiring dependable 13 A protection.
