Rated 10 A on a 3-pole, curve C trip characteristic, it is designed for control and distribution circuits where you need to open and close the load remotely while still providing overcurrent and short-circuit protection. The remote control accepts multiple command types: maintained (continuous), impulse (pulse), or maintained very-low-voltage signals, with control voltages available at 230 V AC, 24 V AC, 48 V AC, 24 V DC, or 48 V DC. This flexibility lets it integrate into both conventional AC control circuits and DC-based automation systems without an interposing relay.
Breaking capacity is the headline protective rating: 30 kA Icu at 220–240 V AC and 15 kA Icu at 380–415 V AC, both per EN/IEC 60947-2. The 'H' in iC60H denotes this higher breaking capacity variant. Rated insulation voltage (Ui) is 500 V AC, which sets the maximum voltage the internal insulation system can withstand continuously. This exceeds the 230 V control supply and the 400 V class network, so the part is suitable for 3-phase panels up to 400 V phase-to-phase without derating the insulation path. Curve C means the magnetic trip operates at 5 to 10 times In (50–100 A for this 10 A unit), making it appropriate for circuits with moderate inrush — think control transformers, contactor coils, or small motor starters — rather than purely resistive loads (curve B) or high-inrush transformers (curve D). Electrical durability is rated at 50,000 cycles under AC-1 (resistive) load at 50 Hz, matching the mechanical endurance of 50,000 cycles. For a combined control-and-protection device this is a solid service life; if your application requires frequent switching at rated current, this figure governs the replacement interval. The unit mounts on a 35 mm symmetrical DIN rail, occupies 11 x 9 mm pitches (99 mm width), and is IP20 finger-safe per IEC 60529 — standard for enclosed panel installation.
Integration and wiring considerations
Earth-leakage protection is handled by a separate block (not integrated), so if ground-fault protection is required on this circuit, you will need to add a compatible Vigi iC60 or similar RCD module downstream or upstream. The Reflex iC60H itself provides only overcurrent and short-circuit protection. Local signalling uses a green LED for device ON, a flashing LED for tripped condition, and a red LED for fault — useful for panel walk-downs. The contact position indicator gives visual confirmation of the main contact state without needing to meter the load side. Provision for padlocking in the OFF position allows lockout/tagout compliance per standard safety practices. The padlock hasp accepts a standard padlock shackle to secure the breaker in the off state during maintenance.
