Circuit breaker 10 amp 5 pole
A 10 amp, 5-pole circuit breaker!
Here's what you need to know:
10 Amp Rating: This means the circuit breaker is designed to interrupt a maximum current of 10 amps. If the current exceeds 10 amps, the breaker will trip (or open) to prevent overheating and potential electrical fires.
5-Pole Configuration: A 5-pole circuit breaker has five separate contacts or poles, each designed to handle a specific function or circuit. This configuration is commonly used in applications where multiple circuits need to be protected by a single breaker.
Typical Applications: 10 amp, 5-pole circuit breakers are often used in:
- Residential electrical panels: to protect individual circuits in a home or apartment.
- Commercial electrical systems: to protect multiple circuits in a small to medium-sized business.
- Industrial control panels: to protect control circuits, motor circuits, or other specialized applications.
Key Features:
- High-quality materials and construction for reliable performance
- Compact design for easy installation in tight spaces
- Meets or exceeds relevant industry standards (e.g., UL, IEC, or CSA)
- May have additional features like arc fault protection, ground fault protection, or tamper-resistant mechanisms
Common Uses: Some common uses for 10 amp, 5-pole circuit breakers include:
- Lighting circuits
- Small motor circuits (e.g., fans, pumps, or compressors)
- Control circuits (e.g., for HVAC systems, security systems, or industrial machinery)
- Power distribution circuits in commercial or industrial settings
When selecting a 10 amp, 5-pole circuit breaker, ensure it meets the specific requirements of your application, including the maximum current rating, pole configuration, and any additional features you may need.
