Eaton xEffect xEffect Miniature Circuit Breaker, 4-Pole, 16 A, Type C, 400 V ac AC, 6 kA Breaking Capacity

Put your system in safe hands with this MCB from Eaton. It automatically cuts attached circuits when currents exceed 80A, so you can be sure downstream equipment stays safe. As the unit handles voltages between 230 and 400V AC, it's an ideal option for use in residential and industrial applications. Thanks to a 4P configuration, it's a multitasker that turns off up to four systems in a snap. Resetting is a breeze – just flip the front-facing toggles that clearly indicate which poles have tripped.

• IP20 rating indicates it's touch-proof and safe to handle during installation and reset

Type C devices instantly trip when they receive between 5 and 10 times their full load current. In this instance, that's 16A. This makes them suitable for systems where switching surges are high, like motors or large fluorescent lighting systems.
