Eaton PKNM-16/1N/C/003-MW (236212) – FI/LS combination switch 1 + N, 16 A, 30 mA, characteristic C
The Eaton PKNM-16/1N/C/003-MW is a high-quality residual current circuit breaker (RCCB) from the Eaton xPole series. It combines residual current protection (RCD) and overcurrent protection (MCB) in a single compact device, offering maximum personal and line protection for single-phase circuits with a neutral conductor. With a 16 A rated current, 30 mA residual current tripping, and a C-curve characteristic, this breaker is ideally suited for use in modern residential and commercial installations.
Key features
-
Rated current 16 A – ideal for standard circuits and socket circuits.
-
Residual current tripping 30 mA – reliable personal protection in accordance with VDE regulations.
-
Characteristic curve C – ideal for circuits with moderate inrush currents, e.g. due to motors or transformers.
-
1 + N-pole version – simultaneous disconnection of phase and neutral conductor.
-
Compact combination device – RCD and MCB function in one module saves space in the distribution box.
- Mounting on DIN rail – simple, quick and safe installation.
- Color variant MW (white) – visually matched for visible installations.
