Product details

That 15 kA SCCR at 400 V gives headroom for high-fault installations without cascading upstream breakers. For UL/CSA jurisdictions, it carries a 5 kA rating under UL 1077 and CSA C22.2 No.235. Touch protection is built in.

Rated for mechanical engineering and industrial environments per the manufacturer's suitability listing. The 1-pole D-curve 8 A breaker is a common choice for control transformer primaries, small motor branch circuits, or solenoid banks in a panel — any load with a high inrush that needs a dedicated overcurrent device.
