It is designed for distribution in residential and light commercial AC networks at 230 V, 50/60 Hz. The B curve means the magnetic trip activates at 3 to 5 times the rated current (18 to 30 A for this 6 A unit), making it a good fit for resistive and general-purpose loads where inrush is moderate — lighting circuits, socket outlets, small appliances. Breaking capacity is 6 kA (Icn and Ics at 230 V AC), certified to IEC 60898-1. That is the standard fault-clearing rating for final subcircuits in most domestic and light commercial panels — it will safely interrupt a short-circuit up to 6,000 A without welding the contacts or damaging the enclosure.

Product details
Frequently asked questions
What is the breaking capacity of the EZ9F26106?
6 kA Icn and Ics at 230 V AC, 50/60 Hz, certified to IEC 60898-1. That is the standard fault rating for final subcircuits in residential and light commercial distribution boards.
What is the closest alternative to the EZ9F26106 in the same family?
Within the Easy9 range, the closest sibling is the same 1P, B-curve, 6 A MCB with the same 6 kA breaking capacity and DIN-rail footprint. The difference is negligible for fit — the EZ9F26106 is the standard order code for this rating.
What compliance documentation does Schneider provide for the EZ9F26106?
The MCB is certified to IEC 60898-1. The Easy9 range typically carries CE marking for the European market. Specific RoHS and REACH declarations are available from Schneider Electric's documentation portal for this order code.
