What the 6 A rating and C-curve mean for your branch circuit
The 2CCS472001R1064: The 6 A rated current sets the continuous load limit for the protected branch — downstream wiring and equipment must not draw more than this under normal operation. C-curve tripping characteristic means the magnetic trip operates at 5 to 10 times the rated current (30–60 A), which handles motor and transformer inrush without nuisance tripping while still clearing hard faults within the 10 kA breaking capacity. The 10 kA Icn and Icu ratings are identical — this breaker safely interrupts a 10 kA fault current at 440 V without needing replacement after a single event, which simplifies spare stock planning.
Panel fit and installation constraints
DIN-rail mounting with a 36 mm width occupies two standard 18 mm modular spaces in a distribution board — the 76 mm depth and 91 mm height fit within standard enclosure depths. IP20 rating means the breaker requires an IP54 or higher enclosure for dust and moisture protection — suitable for clean indoor panels, not wet or outdoor locations. Screw terminals with overvoltage category III rating support permanent connection in fixed installations where transient overvoltages from the mains supply are expected.
