Combining a delayed thermal tripping mechanism for overload protection with an electromechanical mechanism for short-circuit protection, it is a current-limiting choice for low-current lighting and control circuits in UAE residential and commercial distribution boards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1-pole 6A Type C MCB suited to low-current lighting and control circuit protection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e6kA breaking capacity at 230\/400V AC for standard UAE residential and commercial fault levels\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDual tripping mechanism — delayed thermal for overload, electromechanical for short-circuit protection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCurrent-limiting design complying with IEC\/EN 60898-1 for residential applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenuine ABB SH200 series quality — consistent performance and reliability\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDetails\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBrand\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eABB\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eModel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSH201-C6\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRated Current\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e6A\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePoles\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTripping Characteristic\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eType C\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBreaking Capacity\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e6kA\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eVoltage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e230V AC\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMounting\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDIN Rail\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eApplications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLow-current lighting circuit protection in residential and commercial distribution boards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eControl and signaling circuit protection in panel builds across the UAE\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSmall appliance and low-load circuit protection in consumer units\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDistribution board MCB replacement for lighting sub-circuits\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhat's the difference between an MCB and an RCCB\/RCD?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAn MCB (miniature circuit breaker) protects wiring and connected equipment against overload and short-circuit current. An RCCB\/RCD protects against earth leakage by monitoring current imbalance.
