Why Choose the Lovato P1MB1MC02 Miniature Circuit Breaker?
The Lovato P1MB1MC02 is a compact 1P+N miniature circuit breaker designed to protect low-voltage electrical circuits against overloads and short circuits. Manufactured by Lovato Electric, it combines a protected phase pole and switched neutral within a space-saving single DIN module, making it suitable for densely populated distribution boards and industrial control panels.
Rated at 2 A, the P1MB1MC02 features a type C tripping characteristic and a rated short-circuit breaking capacity of 6 kA. The C curve accommodates moderate starting and inrush currents, making this breaker suitable for control transformers, solenoids, small motors and other inductive electrical loads.
The breaker is designed for a rated operational voltage of 230 V AC and mounts directly onto a standard 35 mm DIN rail. Compliance with IEC and EN circuit breaker standards, together with recognised product certifications, makes the P1MB1MC02 a dependable solution for professional electrical installations and OEM machinery.

Reliable Protection for Control and Inductive Loads
Miniature circuit breakers automatically disconnect an electrical circuit when an overload or short circuit is detected. This helps prevent excessive conductor temperatures and reduces the risk of damage to wiring, terminals and connected electrical equipment.
The type C characteristic of the Lovato P1MB1MC02 allows the breaker to tolerate moderate temporary inrush currents without unnecessary operation. This makes it particularly useful for industrial control circuits containing contactor coils, solenoids, transformers and small motors.
Typical Applications
- Industrial control and auxiliary circuits.
- Contactor and relay coil circuits.
- Control transformers.
- Solenoids and electromagnetic devices.
- Small motors and inductive loads.
- Machine control panels.
- Commercial and industrial distribution boards.
