Why Choose the IMO US10C1006A Supplementary Protector?
The IMO US10C1006A is a compact UL 1077 supplementary protector designed to provide dependable overload and short circuit protection for electrical equipment and internal control circuits. Manufactured by IMO Precision Controls, this DIN rail-mounted miniature circuit breaker is ideal for industrial machinery, automation systems, OEM equipment and electrical control panels requiring reliable equipment-level protection.
Featuring a single-pole configuration, a 6 A rated current and a C curve tripping characteristic, the US10C1006A is suitable for circuits with moderate inrush currents. Its thermo-magnetic operating mechanism delivers dependable protection for PLCs, control circuits, instrumentation, power supplies and other sensitive electrical equipment.
With a 10 kA short circuit breaking capacity, compact modular construction and DIN rail mounting, the US10C1006A provides effective fault protection while occupying minimal panel space. Designed as a UL 1077 supplementary protector, it should be used alongside an appropriate upstream branch circuit protective device where required.

Reliable Protection for Control and Equipment Circuits
Supplementary protectors automatically disconnect electrical circuits when excessive current is detected. The thermal element responds to sustained overload conditions, while the magnetic element provides rapid operation during short circuit faults. This dual-action protection helps safeguard internal wiring, sensitive electronic components and connected equipment from electrical damage.
The C curve characteristic of the IMO US10C1006A allows moderate temporary inrush currents before magnetic tripping occurs. This makes it suitable for control equipment and electrical devices that experience brief start-up currents while maintaining dependable protection against genuine electrical faults.
