ETI ETIMAT P10 circuit breaker 2P 16A D 10kA (1901250)

This two-pole circuit breaker from the ETIMAT P10 series by ETI is designed to protect AC electrical circuits against overload and short circuit. It is used in distribution boards for residential, commercial, and light industrial installations where simultaneous disconnection of two poles is required, or where a two-wire line needs coordinated protection and switching. With a rated current of 16 A, the device is suitable for circuits with moderate load, including lines feeding equipment that does not exceed this current level in normal operation. The D tripping characteristic makes this model appropriate for circuits with higher inrush currents. This is important for loads that can draw a short-term current peak at start-up, so the breaker can tolerate brief starting surges without unnecessary tripping while still responding to fault conditions. The breaking capacity of 10 kA indicates the ability to interrupt high short-circuit currents within the specified limits, which is an important parameter for safe operation in low-voltage networks. The breaker is rated for AC voltage up to 415 V and operates at a frequency of 50/60 Hz. It also has an impulse withstand voltage Uimp of 6 kV, which reflects its resistance to transient overvoltage events within the intended application class. Compliance with EN/IEC 60898 confirms that the device is intended for circuit protection in low-voltage electrical installations. For installation and wiring, the model accepts conductors with a cross-section from 1 mm² to 25 mm², which provides flexibility when integrating it into different distribution schemes. The ETIMAT P10 2p D16 configuration combines two-pole switching, 16 A rated current, D curve tripping, and 10 kA breaking capacity in a modular format suitable for mounting in standard DIN-rail distribution panels. This makes it a practical solution for protecting and isolating lines where both poles must be disconnected together and where higher starting currents must be taken into account.
