    The WKC310C 3 Pole 10kA MCB is a 10A C Curve breaker designed to protect three-phase circuits from short-circuit and overload faults. Rated at 10kA breaking capacity and BS 7671 (18th Edition) compliant, it’s widely used in industrial boards, EV chargers, and solar PV installs. Its C Curve tripping profile allows safe operation on circuits with higher inrush currents such as motors and HVAC systems.

    Installer Tip: Choose C Curve breakers for inductive circuits with inrush (motors, HVAC, EV chargers). For resistive loads, see the B Curve. For heavy inrush, check the D Curve.

    Key Features

    • 10A rated current – protects small three-phase inductive circuits
    • C Curve tripping – operates at 5–10x In
    • 10kA breaking capacity – ensures safe disconnection under fault
    • 3 Pole design: covers three-phase systems
    • Bi-directional: wiring possible from top or bottom
    • Applications: motors, HVAC, EV chargers, PV boards

    Compare 10A 3 Pole Variants

    Model Curve Rated Current Breaking Capacity
    WKC310B B Curve 10A 10kA
    WKC310C (This Product) C Curve 10A 10kA
    WKC310D D Curve 10A 10kA

    Where is the WKC310C typically used?

    In three-phase setups requiring protection for inductive loads like motors, HVAC systems, or EV chargers.

    How does C Curve differ from B and D?

    C Curve trips at 5–10x rated current, ideal for inrush loads. B Curve trips faster (3–5x In), while D Curve is slower (10–20x In) for heavy machinery.

    Why choose a 10kA breaker?

    It ensures safe disconnection even under high fault currents in industrial/commercial boards.

    Is this MCB bi-directional?

    Yes — it can be wired from the top or bottom terminals.

    Is it EV and PV compatible?

    Yes — it’s suitable for EV protection and solar distribution.
