What is WKC116B used for?
WKC116B is a 16A B Curve 1 pole MCB used for overcurrent and short-circuit protection in domestic, commercial, and industrial distribution systems.
What does 10kA breaking capacity mean?
It means the breaker can safely interrupt fault currents up to 10,000 amps, making it suitable for installations where higher fault levels may be present.
Is WKC116B suitable for EV or solar installations?
Yes. The WCED WKC range is bidirectional and suitable for EV and solar installations where the device rating and curve are appropriate for the circuit.
What does B Curve mean?
B Curve breakers are typically used on standard circuit applications where startup current is lower than on more inductive or higher-inrush loads.
What size is this breaker?
The dimensions of WKC116B are 17.8 x 82.4 x 78.5mm.
