FAQ

Question?

What is the difference between the C60N and the modern Acti 9 iC60N?

The Acti 9 iC60N is the successor, offering enhanced features like VisiTrip for instant fault indication and VisiSafe for guaranteed downstream circuit safety, along with a wider range of accessories. However, the C60N remains a robust and reliable choice for direct replacement.

What does the 'C' in C6 stand for?

The 'C' refers to the trip curve characteristic of the breaker. A C-curve breaker is designed to trip between 5 and 10 times the rated current, making it suitable for general applications with moderate inrush currents, such as lighting, sockets, and small motors.

Can this 2-pole (2P) breaker be used on a single-phase circuit?

Yes, this 2P breaker is specifically designed for single-phase circuits where both the phase (live) and neutral conductors need to be switched, which is a requirement in many installations for complete isolation.
