The WKC216C is a 16 A 2 Pole 10 kA Miniature Circuit Breaker (MCB) designed for small-power and control circuits with moderate inrush currents. The C-curve tripping profile provides a short delay at start-up — ideal for motors, fans, heating controls, and automation panels where current peaks are common.

Dual-pole isolation ensures both live conductors are disconnected simultaneously, meeting BS EN 60898-1 standards for circuit protection and safety. Compact 36 mm body fits any 35 mm DIN rail enclosure including consumer units, modular enclosures, and commercial boards.

Installer Tip: Use a 16 A C-curve on small motor or control circuits where a B-curve may nuisance trip. For purely resistive loads, the B-curve version is suitable, while D-curves suit high inrush equipment.
