Rated 40 A at 240 V AC, 50 Hz, with a B-curve tripping characteristic that trips between 3 and 5 times rated current, making it suited for resistive and general-purpose loads where inrush is modest. The 55 mm installation depth and 2 width units (standard 18 mm per pole) let it drop into a standard DIN-rail enclosure without crowding adjacent devices.

Frequently asked questions
What does the 1P+N pole configuration mean?
The breaker switches both the phase and neutral conductors, but only the phase pole is protected against overcurrent. The neutral pole is switched only — it opens and closes with the phase but has no trip element.
