PXB6-63 Brettina di sicurezza a circuito ridotto
Il Interruttore di circuito PXB6-63 offre protezione da sovraccarico e cortocircuito nell'intervallo pubblicato di 6A–63A. I suoi dati di prodotto verificati riportano 6kA Icu = Ics, 1P / 2P / 3P / 4P e B / C / D. La scelta finale deve corrispondere al conduttore, al carico, alla corrente di cortocircuito prevista, al sistema di installazione e alle normative locali applicabili.
Product Overview
PXB6-63 is a 6kA Icu = Ics miniature circuit breaker covering 6A–63A. It is available with 1P / 2P / 3P / 4P and B / C / D trip options as stated in the product data. It provides overload and short-circuit protection and positive isolation.
The updated model data references IEC 60898-1; GB/T 10963.1 and lists CE, CB and CCC certification, together with DEKRA certification. Standards, certification scope and technical documents must be confirmed for the ordered configuration and destination market.
Key Features
Typical Applications
It is intended for AC distribution circuits where the selected current rating, curve, pole arrangement and breaking capacity match the conductor and system study. Typical project contexts include residential, commercial, high-rise and industrial final distribution; suitability depends on the actual circuit rather than the application label alone.
Applications and Selection Guide
Use the product-specific values below as a shortlist, then validate the complete circuit design. Product ratings do not replace a fault-current study, conductor calculation, coordination review or applicable installation rules.
| Selection point | PXB6-63 option | What the project must confirm |
|---|---|---|
| Rated current | 6A–63A | Coordinate with design current, conductor ampacity, ambient temperature and grouping |
| Trip curve | B/C/D | Choose for load inrush and required fault-clearing performance, not by current alone |
| Breaking capacity | 6kA Icu = Ics | Confirm against the prospective short-circuit current at the installation point |
| Pole arrangement | 1P / 2P / 3P / 4P | Match supply system and local switching or isolation rules |
| Installation interface | Referenza terminale centrale da 45 mm | Check enclosure, rail/base, terminal and conductor compatibility |
Breaking Capacity
6kA Icu = Ics is the published product value. Confirm the prospective short-circuit current at the installation point.
Trip and Load Behaviour
B / C / D is the available trip/protection option. Match it to load inrush and required disconnection performance.
Pole Configuration
Available arrangement: 1P / 2P / 3P / 4P. Confirm which conductors must be switched and protected under local rules.
MCB or RCBO
An MCB does not replace residual-current protection where an RCD or RCBO is required.

PXB6-63 Product FAQ
What does the 6kA rating on the PXB6-63 MCB mean?
It is the published short-circuit breaking capacity, stated as 6kA Icu = Ics for the relevant product data. It does not describe normal circuit loading.
What is the difference between a 6A MCB and a 6kA MCB rating?
6A is a rated-current value for normal load and conductor protection; 6kA is 6,000A of short-circuit interrupting capacity under stated conditions. They describe different functions.
How many amperes is 6kA?
6kA equals 6,000A. This is a fault-current value, while PXB6-63 continuous rated-current options are published separately as 6A–63A.
What is the main difference between 6kA and 10kA breakers?
The main difference is the stated short-circuit breaking capacity. Select the required level from the prospective fault current, product standard and coordination study.
Would a higher kA breaker always be better than PXB6-63?
Not by itself. A higher verified duty may be required for a higher fault level, but curve, rated current, poles, voltage, standard, dimensions and coordination must also match.
Does kA determine the maximum normal load of a breaker?
No. kA relates to short-circuit interruption. Normal load is governed by the ampere rating, conductor design, installation conditions and applicable rules.
How does the PXB6-63 miniature circuit breaker work?
PXB6-63 automatically opens the circuit when an overload or short circuit triggers its protective mechanism. Its thermal response allows a time delay for overloads, while its magnetic response operates at higher fault currents according to the selected B, C or D curve. Use the published time-current characteristics to check the required disconnection time for your circuit.
How do I choose the rated current for a PXB6-63 MCB?
PXB6-63 is available in 6, 10, 16, 20, 25, 32, 40, 50 and 63 A ratings. Choose a rating that suits the design load and protects the cable within its calculated current-carrying capacity. Account for installation method, ambient temperature, grouping, load inrush and local electrical rules. The 63 A frame designation does not mean every circuit should use a 63 A breaker.
What do B, C and D tripping curves mean for PXB6-63?
The curves distinguish the magnetic tripping bands: B is 3–5 times rated current, C is 5–10 times and D is 10–20 times. These are current multiples, not operating-time values. PXB6-63 offers all three curves. Select a curve that accommodates the actual load inrush while meeting fault-disconnection requirements; do not move to C or D simply to stop unexplained tripping.
How do I choose between 1P, 2P, 3P and 4P PXB6-63 breakers?
PXB6-63 is available in 1P, 2P, 3P and 4P configurations. Choose according to the supply arrangement and which conductors must be switched and protected together. A single-phase circuit may require one-pole or two-pole switching, while three-phase circuits may require three-pole or four-pole switching. Confirm neutral treatment, the product connection diagram and local installation rules rather than selecting by pole count alone.
Can an RCCB replace the PXB6-63 MCB?
An RCCB does not replace PXB6-63 overload and short-circuit protection. An RCCB detects residual current, whereas PXB6-63 is an MCB and does not provide residual-current protection. Where both functions are required, the circuit needs a suitably coordinated MCB and RCCB, or an appropriate RCBO combining the two functions. Select residual-current type and sensitivity according to the application and local rules.
Confirm the Right PXB6-63 Configuration
Send your current rating, pole arrangement, trip option, system voltage, prospective fault level, destination market and quantity. CHAC will review the request against the published product range.
