Description
The WMC125C is a 25A single-pole 6kA miniature circuit breaker with a C Curve tripping characteristic. It provides overload and short-circuit protection for circuits designed for this current rating and curve.
Select the MCB against the connected load, cable rating, prospective fault current and the consumer-unit manufacturer's approved device range. Confirm board and busbar compatibility when replacing or adding a breaker.
Key details
- Part code: WMC125C

Choose the trip curve specified for the circuit. The same current rating does not make B and C Curve devices interchangeable.
| Model | Current | Curve | Poles / breaking capacity |
|---|---|---|---|
| WMC125B | 25A | B | 1 pole / 6kA |
| WMC125C (this product) | 25A | C | 1 pole / 6kA |

Installation notes
A qualified electrician must select, install and test the WMC125C against the circuit design, the board manufacturer's instructions and the applicable BS 7671 requirements.
- Check that a 25A C Curve device is appropriate for the load, cable and required disconnection performance.
- Verify the prospective fault current and protective-device coordination.
- Confirm the consumer unit or distribution board approves this exact MCB and its busbar/terminal arrangement; physical fit alone does not establish compatibility.
- Follow the supplied terminal identification, conductor-capacity and tightening-torque instructions.
- Provide the residual-current protection required for the installation; an MCB does not provide residual-current detection.
- Complete the required inspection, testing and certification before the circuit is put into service.
FAQs
What current rating and curve is WMC125C?
This listing is for the 25A C Curve single-pole MCB. Match both the rating and trip curve to the circuit specification.
Can I substitute the other 25A curve?
WMC125C and WMC125B have different tripping characteristics. The installer must confirm the required curve and disconnection performance before substitution.
Will it fit every Whitecliffe consumer unit?
Compatibility must be checked against the exact board and the manufacturer's approved devices. A matching rail or similar physical size is not sufficient on its own.
Does this MCB provide residual-current protection?
No. An MCB provides overcurrent protection. Any required residual-current protection must be provided by an appropriate RCD or RCBO arrangement.
What does the 6kA rating mean?
It identifies the stated short-circuit breaking capacity under the device's specified conditions. The installer must check suitability for the prospective fault current and circuit design.
