The Schneider Electric A9N1P32CGN is a 1-pole Acti9 xC60 miniature circuit breaker rated at 32 A with a C-curve magnetic trip characteristic (5...10 x In). Breaking capacity is 10 kA Icn at 240 V AC, certified to IS/IEC 60898-1, which covers the standard for household and similar installations in India and other IEC markets.
A B-curve would trip too early on those loads; a D-curve would let them ride through but might not clear a hard fault fast enough. Thermal-magnetic trip technology handles both overload (thermal bimetal, slow response) and short-circuit (magnetic solenoid, instantaneous). Overvoltage category IV confirms it's suitable for the main distribution point, not just downstream sub-circuits.
The Biconnect tunnel terminals at the bottom accept up to 25 mm² flexible or 35 mm² rigid cable — that's generous for a 32 A breaker and makes it straightforward to land larger tails or loop through. Wire stripping length is 13 mm for top or bottom connection. The toggle gives clear ON/OFF indication and a contact position indicator shows the actual state of the contacts, not just the handle position — useful during commissioning when you need to confirm isolation visually.
