Why Choose the Lovato P1MB1MC04 Miniature Circuit Breaker?

The Lovato P1MB1MC04 is a compact 1P+N miniature circuit breaker designed to protect low-voltage electrical circuits against overloads and short circuits. Manufactured by Lovato Electric, it combines a protected phase pole and switched neutral within a space-saving single DIN module, making it ideal for densely populated distribution boards, control panels and automated machinery.

Rated at 4 A, the P1MB1MC04 features a type C tripping characteristic and a rated short-circuit breaking capacity of 6 kA. The C curve is suitable for circuits containing moderate starting or inrush currents, including control transformers, contactor coils, solenoids and small inductive loads.

The breaker operates at a rated voltage of 230 V AC and mounts directly onto a standard 35 mm DIN rail. Compliance with IEC/EN 60898-1 and IEC/EN 60947-2, together with recognised TÜV Rheinland and EAC certifications, makes it a dependable choice for professional electrical installations and OEM equipment.

Reliable Protection for Control and Inductive Loads

Miniature circuit breakers automatically disconnect an electrical circuit when excessive current is caused by an overload or short circuit. This helps prevent conductors from overheating and protects terminals, control components and connected equipment against electrical damage.

The type C characteristic of the Lovato P1MB1MC04 allows the breaker to tolerate moderate temporary inrush currents without unnecessary tripping. This makes it particularly useful for industrial control circuits containing transformers, contactor coils, solenoids and other small inductive devices.

Typical Applications

  • Industrial control and auxiliary circuits.
  • Contactor and relay coil protection.
  • Control transformers.
  • Solenoids and electromagnetic devices.
  • Small motors and inductive loads.
  • Machine control panels.
  • Commercial and industrial distribution boards.
