FAQ

The 'C' curve indicates that the breaker is designed for general purpose applications with moderate inrush currents, like resistive or small inductive loads. It will trip between 5 to 10 times the rated current (3A) on a short circuit, providing a balance between protection and avoiding nuisance tripping.

No, this C60H-DC model is specifically designed and rated for Direct Current (DC) circuits. Using it in an Alternating Current (AC) system is unsafe and not compliant with electrical standards, as the arc-quenching mechanism is different for DC and AC.

Unlike AC breakers, DC breakers like this one are polarized. This means the positive (+) and negative (-) wires from the power source and to the load must be connected to the specific terminals marked on the breaker. Reversing the polarity can compromise its ability to safely interrupt a fault current.
