Eaton Miniature Circuit Breakers (MCBs) - FAZ6 Series
The FAZ6 series of miniature circuit breakers (MCBs) from Eatons xEffect range has a current limiting design providing fast short-circuit interruption that reduces the let-through electrical energy and overload currents that can damage the circuit.
Ideally suited to control circuits and electrical distribution boards the FAZ6 series of MCBs offer a wide range of diverse protection characteristics, protecting your electrical equipment against overload damage. For additional safety, the MCB breaker cannot be defeated by holding the handle in the ON position, these MCBs are also finger proof and have a trip-free mechanism.
These MCBs have both a thermal and electromagnetic release, with rated currents of 0.5 A up to 63 A and a switching capacity of 6kA or 10kA depending on the device type. A guide for secure terminal connection and a 3-position DIN-rail simplify the installation of the circuit breaker.
The FAZ series includes miniature circuit breakers, interlocks, busbars and snap-on accessories including auxiliaries and tripping modules.

FAZ-C*/* & FAZ-S*/* = IEC/EN60947-2
IEC 60947-2 Relates to Low Voltage Circuit Breakers for use in industrial and similar installations. In the UK these are traditionally known as miniature circuit breakers (MCBs), moulded case circuit breakers
(MCCBs) and also air circuit breakers (ACBs).

What are the differences between the Tripping Curves?
Type B: Instantaneous trip when the electrical current through the device is 3 to 5 times the rated current. The type B trip curve MCBs are designed for standard circuit protection, typically protection of generators, persons and very long cables
Type C: Instantaneous trip when the flow-through current is 5 to 10 times the rated current.
Type C trip curve residential and domestic MCBs are used for higher inrush currents such as in machines and lighting, providing overload protection of circuits and other consumer units.
Type D: Instantaneous trip when the flow-through current is 10 to 14 times the rated current.
D curve MCBs are suitable for inductive and capacitive loads like transformers condensers. and electric motors.
Type K: Instantaneous trip when the flow-through current is 10 to 14 times the rated current.
Type K curve MCBs are suitable for inductive loads like transformers, condensers. and electric motors.
Type S: Instantaneous trip when the flow-through current is 13 to 17 times the rated current.
Suitable for applications where high levels of inrush current are expected. The high magnetic trip point of type S curve MCBs prevents nuisance tripping in high inductive applications such as motors, transformers and power supplies.
Type Z: Instantaneous trip when the flow-through current is 2 to 3 times the rated current.
Z curve MCBs are intended for use in electrical circuits that require a very low short circuit trip setting, for example, semiconductors.
Type C: Instantaneous trip when the flow-through current is 5 to 10 times the rated current.
Type C trip curve residential and domestic MCBs are used for higher inrush currents such as in machines and lighting, providing overload protection of circuits and other consumer units.

Eaton MCB, 230 to 400V AC Voltage Rating, 6kA Breaking Capacity - FAZ6 Series - 239099 FAZ6-C4/2
Install this miniature circuit breaker from Eaton for the reliable protection of your electrical circuits against overcurrent. It automatically and rapidly disconnects the power supply on detecting faults like short circuits or voltage spikes to limit the risk of electric shocks or fires. A trip-free mechanism prevents breaker activation even when the switch is held in the ON position to stop damage caused by overloads. Thermal-magnetic overcurrent protection offers dual safeguarding against excessive current and overheating. You can use this MCB in control circuits and electrical distribution boards.
• DIN-rail mounting capability for easy installations in limited spaces
• Front switch toggle clearly indicates the ON or OFF status of the device for safety
• Durable plastic housing protects internal components against corrosion

What's the tripping curve of this MCB?
This Eaton MCB has a type C tripping curve, which means it trips instantaneously when the flow-through current is five to 10 times the rated current. It's suitable for handling higher inrush currents such as those found in lighting applications.
