Why Choose the Lovato P1MB4PC01 Miniature Circuit Breaker?
The Lovato P1MB4PC01 is a dependable four-pole miniature circuit breaker (MCB) designed to protect electrical circuits against overloads and short circuits. Part of the Lovato Electric P1MB modular protection range, it combines reliable thermal-magnetic operation with a compact DIN rail format suitable for industrial machinery, commercial distribution systems and electrical control panels.
This miniature circuit breaker has a rated current of 1 A, a Type C tripping characteristic and an IEC short-circuit breaking capacity of 10 kA. The Type C response accommodates moderate inrush currents, making the breaker suitable for control transformers, solenoids, small motors, power supplies and other inductive electrical equipment.
With four mechanically linked poles, the P1MB4PC01 provides simultaneous disconnection of all protected conductors during an overload or short-circuit condition. Its four-module design mounts directly onto a standard DIN rail, enabling organised installation within distribution boards, switchgear assemblies and automation cabinets.
Key Advantages
- Dependable overload and short-circuit protection.
- Four-pole configuration for coordinated circuit isolation.
- 1 A rated current for low-current control and auxiliary circuits.

Reliable Protection for Low-Current Control Circuits
Miniature circuit breakers automatically interrupt an electrical supply when an overload or short circuit is detected. Thermal protection responds to sustained excessive current, while magnetic protection provides rapid disconnection when a high fault current occurs.
The Lovato P1MB4PC01 combines a low 1 A current rating with a Type C tripping curve, making it suitable for auxiliary and control circuits containing devices that may produce moderate starting currents. Its four-pole construction ensures all protected conductors are isolated together when the breaker operates.
Typical Applications
- Industrial control and auxiliary circuits.
- Control transformers and power supplies.
- Solenoids, contactor coils and relay circuits.
- Small motors and inductive electrical loads.
- Machine control and automation panels.
- Commercial and industrial distribution boards.
