Why Choose the Lovato P2MB2PC100 Miniature Circuit Breaker?
The Lovato P2MB2PC100 is a high-performance two-pole miniature circuit breaker (MCB) designed to provide dependable protection against overloads and short circuits in commercial and industrial electrical installations. As part of the Lovato P2 MB modular protection range, it delivers reliable thermal-magnetic protection for distribution boards, machinery and control panels.
With a 100 A rated current, C tripping characteristic and 10 kA short-circuit breaking capacity, the P2MB2PC100 is ideal for circuits supplying equipment with moderate inrush currents such as motors, transformers and lighting systems. The linked two-pole mechanism disconnects both conductors simultaneously, improving circuit isolation and safety.
The breaker occupies 3 DIN modules, operates on 230/400 V AC systems or up to 125 V DC, and mounts directly onto a standard 35 mm DIN rail. Designed in accordance with IEC/EN 60947-2 and UL 1077, it is suitable for demanding industrial environments.
