FAQs

What does 'SP' mean?

SP stands for Single Pole, indicating that the MCB protects a single live wire.

What is a Type B curve?

A Type B curve indicates the MCB's tripping characteristics. Type B MCBs trip quickly for overloads, making them suitable for domestic and light commercial applications.

Can I replace an MCB myself?

While replacing an MCB might seem straightforward, it is highly recommended to have a qualified electrician perform the replacement to ensure safety and compliance with regulations.

What is the breaking capacity?

The breaking capacity (6kA in this case) indicates the maximum fault current the MCB can safely interrupt.

Where can I find the specifications?

The specifications can be found on the product label and in the product documentation.

How often should I test my MCB?

It is recommended to test your MCBs periodically, at least once a year, to ensure they are functioning correctly.
