Eaton xEffect FAZ Miniature Circuit Breaker, 1-Pole, 10 A, Type D, 240 V ac AC, 48 V dc DC, 10 kA Breaking Capacity

This MCB from Eaton ably demonstrates that good things come in small packages. It's capable of handling inductive and capacitive loads and is a versatile option that's well-suited to both AC and DC currents. D-curve characteristics and a 1-pole setup mean it protects a single circuit by tripping when it receives between ten and twenty times its 10A rated value. This means it takes a significant surge to trip it, so it's robust enough for heavy-duty devices like X-ray machines or UPS. As the unit combines electromagnetic and thermal releases, you can trust it to stand up to both overload and short-circuit conditions, shielding you from shocks and your equipment from damage.

• Simple to reset with a flip of the front toggle switch

This MCB tolerates an operating temperature range of -25°C to +70°C, so you can rest assured it keeps its cool when conditions heat up.
