3Miniature Circuit Breakers (MCB)Multi 9
4Definition
Main functions
- Protect cables against overloads and short
circuits - Let the current flow without overheating on
cables - Open and close a circuit under rated current
- Protect against insulation faults (see earth
leakage protection module)
Miniature circuit switch trip unit breaker
(MCB) 4
5Definition
A Multi 9 circuit breaker has
- A mechanical system to open and close the
circuit - A bimetal strip to act against overloads
- A magnetic trip to act against short circuits

Main performances
- It has standardized modular dimensions
- 125Ao 50 kA o 440 V CA
It fits in your pocket... 4

- Thermal tripping curve
- the "thermal" part of the tripping curve must

11Overload protection
- Temperature derating o our circuit breakers
do not have temperature compensationo if the
calibration temperature is different from the
ambient temperature derating is required
Simultaneous multi-pole tripping 4
12Short-circuit protection
Short-circuit current is given as RMS or
peak(Isc or Îsc)RMS Root Mean Square in
symmetrical DC(with PF I) Short-circuit
protection must limit thermal stress in the cable
in order to prevent cable damage (which may reach
vaporization of the copper in some cases)

16Marking
Circuit breaker marking is governed by strict
rules in accordance with the standards and
decisions made by the manufacturer 4
17Choosing a circuit breaker
In conclusion
- A Multi 9 circuit breaker is determined byo
ratingo breaking capacity - number of poleso voltageo tripping curve
- standardo frequencyo type of load 4
