. Key Features

The A9F77116 MCB is designed to deliver reliable and efficient circuit protection. Some of its key features include:

1. Reliable Overload and Short-Circuit Protection
   Provides fast disconnection of circuits in the event of overloads or short circuits, preventing damage to connected equipment and reducing fire risks.

2. C Curve Tripping Characteristics
   The Type C curve is ideal for general-purpose applications where moderate inrush currents are expected, such as lighting circuits, small motors, and appliances.

3. High Breaking Capacity
   Rated for a 6000 A breaking capacity (IEC 60898-1), it is capable of safely interrupting fault currents in typical residential or commercial systems.

4. Increased Short-Circuit Capacity (10 kA)
   The 10 kA short-circuit breaking capacity (IEC 60947-2) ensures that the MCB can handle high fault currents commonly encountered in more demanding applications.

5. Compact and Space-Saving Design
   The 1P design is compact and ideal for installations in small spaces such as residential distribution boards and light commercial panels.

6. DIN Rail Mounting
   The MCB is designed for easy installation on DIN rails, which are standard for electrical panel mounting, simplifying both installation and maintenance.

7. Visual ON/OFF Indicator
   Equipped with a clear visual indicator that shows whether the MCB is in the ON or OFF position, helping ensure proper operation and maintenance.

8. High Durability
   The MCB is built for long-lasting performance with high mechanical and electrical endurance, making it suitable for both residential and light industrial use.

. Applications

The A9F77116 MCB is ideal for a variety of applications, including residential, commercial, and industrial electrical systems. Its main applications include:
