The Schneider Electric A9F06132 is an Acti9 iC60H miniature circuit breaker — 1-pole, B-curve, rated 32 A. The B curve (magnetic trip at 4 x In +/-20%) means it handles resistive and light inductive loads well but will nuisance-trip on high inrush currents from motors or transformers; spec it for lighting, heating, or general socket circuits, not motor feeders. At 230 VAC the Icn is 10,000 A per EN/IEC 60898-1, the standard for domestic and commercial distribution boards. The 18 mm width (2 x 9 mm pitches) snaps onto a DIN rail, and the double terminal accepts up to 35 mm² rigid or 25 mm² flexible — sized for a 32 A feed without pigtailing.
Deployment context
The toggle and trip indicator are visible through the enclosure door, so fault isolation doesn't require opening the panel. Pollution degree 3 (conductive pollution, occasional condensation) matches typical industrial environments per IEC 60947-2.
Dual-certified to EN/IEC 60947-2 (industrial) and EN/IEC 60898-1 (domestic/commercial). Suitability for isolation confirmed under both standards — the contact position indicator shows whether the contacts are open. Overvoltage category IV (for utility-side connection) and tropicalisation class 2 (55°C, 95% RH) per IEC 60068-1. Thermal-magnetic trip unit, no integral earth-leakage protection.
