A single-pole circuit breaker is a compact device (1 module) for residential and commercial electrical panels, designed to automatically interrupt the current in case of overloads or short circuits.
Nominal Current (16A): Standard rating for general-purpose socket circuits or strong lighting.
Tripping Curve (C16): Tolerates small current peaks when starting up household appliances (refrigerators, vacuum cleaners) without unnecessary tripping.
Breaking Capacity (3 kA / 3000 A): Safety interruption capacity required by standards for most homes in Portugal.
Connection (1P / Single-pole): Protected screw terminals for exclusive connection and disconnection of the Phase cable.
