Why Choose the IMO UB10C1005A 5 A Type C Miniature Circuit Breaker?
The IMO UB10C1005A is a compact and dependable single-pole miniature circuit breaker (MCB) designed to protect low-voltage electrical circuits against overload and short-circuit conditions. Manufactured by IMO Precision Controls, it provides reliable circuit protection for industrial control panels, OEM machinery, automation equipment and commercial electrical installations.
Featuring a Type C tripping characteristic, the UB10C1005A is suitable for circuits that experience moderate inrush currents during normal operation. Typical loads include control transformers, contactors, solenoids, power supplies and small motors. Its thermal-magnetic operating mechanism combines sustained overload protection with rapid short-circuit interruption.
With a rated current of 5 A, a high 10 kA short-circuit breaking capacity and a space-saving single-pole format, the IMO UB10C1005A is ideal for protecting control, automation and distribution circuits. Its standard DIN rail mounting arrangement enables straightforward installation within electrical distribution boards, machinery cabinets and industrial control panels.
