Why Choose the Lovato P1MBUH3PC10 Miniature Circuit Breaker?
The Lovato P1MBUH3PC10 is a reliable three-pole miniature circuit breaker (MCB) designed to protect industrial electrical circuits against overloads and short circuits. Part of the established Lovato Electric P1MB series, this modular circuit breaker combines thermal and magnetic protection within a compact DIN rail-mounted format.
With a rated current of 10 A, a Type C tripping characteristic and a short-circuit breaking capacity of 10 kA, the P1MBUH3PC10 is suitable for circuits supplying equipment with moderate starting currents. Typical applications include industrial control panels, machinery, motors, transformers and commercial distribution systems.
The circuit breaker occupies three DIN modules and simultaneously disconnects all three poles when an electrical fault occurs. Its compliance with IEC/EN 60947-2 and UL 489 supports its use in professional industrial installations requiring dependable circuit protection and internationally recognised approvals.

Reliable Protection for Three-Phase Circuits
The Lovato P1MBUH3PC10 uses a thermal-magnetic tripping mechanism to provide two essential forms of circuit protection. The thermal element responds to sustained overload currents, while the magnetic element reacts rapidly to high fault currents caused by short circuits.
Its Type C characteristic allows the breaker to tolerate moderate temporary inrush currents without unnecessary tripping. This makes it suitable for many industrial loads, including contactor-controlled equipment, small motors, transformers, solenoids and control-circuit power supplies.
Typical Applications
- Industrial electrical control panels.
- Three-phase machinery circuits.
- Motor control and automation systems.
- Small motors and inductive loads.
- Transformers and control power supplies.
- Commercial electrical distribution boards.
- Manufacturing and processing equipment.
- OEM machine-building applications.
