Description
The CBI 20 A 1P 3 kA Samite Mini Circuit Breaker is a compact, high-quality protection device designed to safeguard single-phase circuits in homes, offices, and light-commercial settings. Its single-pole configuration ensures that the live conductor is protected, providing dependable overload and short-circuit protection for lighting circuits, socket outlets, and small-appliance connections.
With a 20 A current rating and 3 kA breaking capacity, this breaker is engineered to safely interrupt hazardous fault currents — protecting wiring, appliances, and devices from damage or fire risk. The C-curve thermal-magnetic trip characteristic offers a balanced response: sensitive enough to respond to overloads, yet tolerant of typical startup or inrush currents from appliances or equipment — preventing nuisance trips under normal usage.
-
Type: Miniature Circuit Breaker (MCB), Single-Pole (1P)
-
Rated Current (In): 20 Amps — suitable for standard single-phase circuits like lighting, sockets, small-appliance circuits.
-
