Why Choose the IMO US10C3003A UL1077 Miniature Circuit Breaker?
The IMO US10C3003A is a compact UL1077 supplementary miniature circuit breaker designed to provide dependable overcurrent protection for industrial control panels, OEM machinery and automation systems. Manufactured by IMO Precision Controls, this three-pole protective device helps safeguard electrical circuits against sustained overloads and short-circuit faults in demanding industrial environments.
Featuring a C curve tripping characteristic, the US10C3003A accommodates the moderate inrush currents commonly produced by transformers, contactors, motors and switched-mode power supplies. Its thermal-magnetic operating mechanism combines delayed overload protection with rapid short-circuit interruption, helping protect connected wiring and control equipment.
With a 3 A rated current, 3-pole configuration and 10 kA short-circuit breaking capacity, the IMO US10C3003A provides simultaneous protection and isolation across three conductors. Its modular DIN rail-mounted construction enables straightforward installation within machinery enclosures and industrial electrical cabinets.

Dependable Three-Pole Circuit Protection
The IMO US10C3003A automatically disconnects the protected circuit when excessive current is detected. Its thermal element responds to sustained overload conditions, while its magnetic trip mechanism rapidly interrupts higher-current short circuits. This dual-action operation helps reduce the risk of damage to wiring, control equipment and connected industrial components.
As a UL1077 supplementary protector, the US10C3003A is intended for installation within electrical equipment where suitable branch-circuit protection is already provided. Its low 3 A rating makes it particularly suitable for control, instrumentation and auxiliary circuits requiring linked three-pole disconnection.
Typical Applications
- Industrial control panels.
- Three-phase control and monitoring circuits.
- Instrumentation and measurement equipment.
- Transformer secondary protection.
- Control power supplies.
- OEM machinery and automation systems.
- Motor contactor and auxiliary circuits.
