Why Choose the IMO UB10C2013A Miniature Circuit Breaker?
The IMO UB10C2013A is a high-performance UL 489 miniature circuit breaker (MCB) designed to provide dependable protection against overloads and short circuits in industrial and commercial electrical installations. As part of the IMO UB10 Series, this two-pole circuit breaker delivers reliable branch circuit protection for machinery, control panels, OEM equipment and industrial automation systems.
With a 13 A rated current, two-pole configuration, C curve trip characteristic and 10 kA short-circuit breaking capacity, the UB10C2013A is ideal for protecting control circuits, motors, power supplies, transformers and other equipment with moderate inrush currents. Both poles are mechanically linked to ensure simultaneous disconnection during overload or fault conditions.
Its thermal-magnetic operating mechanism combines reliable overload protection with rapid short-circuit interruption, helping minimise equipment damage and production downtime. The compact DIN rail mounting design enables straightforward installation inside electrical distribution boards and industrial control enclosures.

Reliable Thermal-Magnetic Circuit Protection
The IMO UB10C2013A uses a proven thermal-magnetic operating mechanism that automatically disconnects electrical circuits when overload or short-circuit conditions occur. The thermal element responds to sustained overloads, while the magnetic mechanism rapidly clears high fault currents, helping protect wiring, electrical equipment and connected machinery.
Its C curve characteristic is particularly suited to industrial applications where motors, transformers and switched-mode power supplies generate moderate inrush currents during normal operation while still providing dependable branch circuit protection.
Typical Applications
- Industrial control panels.
- OEM machinery.
- Automation systems.
- PLC control cabinets.
- Control transformers.
- Industrial power supplies.
- Commercial and industrial distribution boards.
- Branch circuit protection.
