Eaton xEffect Miniature Circuit Breaker 2-Pole 40A Type C 415V AC 10kA Breaking Capacity 278764 FAZ-C40/2

Eaton 278764 FAZ-C40/2 Miniature Circuit Breaker is a 2-pole, 40 ampere Type C rated device designed for 415V AC electrical systems with a breaking capacity of 10 kA. It is part of the xEffect series, engineered for quality, reliability, and safety in electrical circuit protection within industrial, commercial, and residential control panels.

This circuit breaker features a short circuit current limiting design to effectively reduce let-through energy, minimizing potential damage to downstream equipment. It supports rated currents up to 63A, providing versatile use for various circuit sizes. The toggle switch includes the ability to be sealed in ON and OFF positions, ensuring tamper resistance and operational security. A trip-free mechanism guarantees the device cannot be manually overridden by holding the handle in the ON position, enhancing safety.

The thermal-magnetic tripping mechanism offers six levels of over-current protection, ensuring precise and dependable operation under fault conditions. The contact position is clearly indicated by red or green lights, aiding in visual status checks. Mounting is via standard DIN rail for straightforward installation, making it suitable for supplementary protection in electrical distribution systems.

The breaker’s compact dimensions, 85mm width and 73mm depth, with an IP20 rating, make it suitable for robust industrial and commercial electrical environments. It is designed for instantaneous break time and features a toggle switch type reset actuator for quick manual resetting after trips.
