Chint 16A 1 Pole B Curve 6kA MCB

The CHINT EBG-1P-B16 is a compact and reliable Miniature Circuit Breaker (MCB) designed to protect electrical circuits from overload and short-circuit faults. As part of CHINT’s EBG series, it is widely used in modern low-voltage electrical installations where safe, efficient, and cost-effective circuit protection is required.

Rated at 16A, the EBG-1P-B16 is a single-pole (1P) Type B MCB, making it ideal for general-purpose final circuits with standard inrush current characteristics. It is commonly installed in residential consumer units, commercial distribution boards, and light industrial panels, where it provides fast and reliable disconnection during electrical faults to protect wiring and connected equipment.

The device operates using a Type B tripping curve, meaning it trips at approximately 3–5 times the rated current, making it suitable for resistive and low-inductive loads such as lighting circuits, socket outlets, and general-purpose power distribution. With a 6kA breaking capacity, it is capable of safely interrupting fault currents in typical low-voltage systems, helping to prevent electrical damage and reduce fire risk.

Its compact modular design allows for easy installation on a standard DIN rail, ensuring compatibility with most modern distribution boards. The EBG series is also designed as a cost-effective solution within CHINT’s protection range while maintaining compliance with international safety standards and dependable performance.
