    Miniature Circuit Breaker


    Miniature circuit breakers shall be of approved design and make and must be tested and validated as per
    IS/IEC 60898, IEC/EN 60898 and IEC 60947-2 standards.
    MCBs shall be suitable for operation at 230V/415V, 50Hz supply. The MCB ratings shall be available from
    0.5-125A in 1P/2P/3P/4P versions. The rated short circuit capacity acc to IS/IEC 60898 shall be of 10,000A.
    MCBs shall be offered with B, C or D tripping characteristics as per the BOQ requirements. The MCBs shall
    be suitable for mounting on a 35mm DIN rail.
    MCBs shall carry ISI and CE marking. The MCB manufacturer (through the bidder) has to submit the valid
    BIS license certificate at the time of offer submission.
    MCBs shall ensure complete electrical Isolation of downstream circuit or equipment, when the MCB is
    switched OFF (to be marked on the MCB in symbolic form)
    IP 20 Degree of Protection shall be ensured to prevent electrical shocks by accidental touch to any live
    parts, by providing finger touch proof terminals.
    Energy Limitation Class-3 shall be to ensure minimum let through energy in the event of a fault, for safety &
    longevity of downstream circuit equipment. (to be mentioned on the MCB as per standards )
    MCBs shall have bi-connect facility to terminate fork type busbar and wires, simultaneously. Terminal
    capacity shall be minimum 25 sq.mm. for ratings up to 32A, and 35 sq.mm. for ratings above 32A, to ensure
    perfect termination of wires and cables. Terminals of MCBs shall have captive screws.
    Basic technical parameters, rating, operating voltage, etc. shall be printed on front face of MCB for ease of
    identification.
    The devices must be capable of heavy-duty operation and to that end, the manufacturer shall guarantee the
    following performance levels, defined by IEC / EN 60947-2 standards:
    - suitability for isolation (section 7.2.7)
    - rated insulation voltage (section 4.3.1.2): 500 V
    - pollution degree (Part 1, section 6.1.3.2): 3
    - rated impulse-withstand voltage (section 4.3.1.3): 6 kV
    Operating knob shall have provision to lock in ON / OFF condition without affecting any automatic tripping
    Circuit-breakers shall be capable of operation under ambient temperature up to 50 C, without derating of
    their overload tripping threshold with respect to their rated operating current. The same must be tested and
    validated as per IEC 60947-2 standard.
    The material used to manufacture MCB shall be 100% recyclable and must comply to RoHS and REACH
    standards.
    MCBs shall be suitable for field-fittable Protection auxiliaries (viz. Over-voltage release, Under-voltage
    release, Shunt trip) and Indication Auxiliaries (like Auxiliary Contact, Trip alarm contact).
    The circuit breakers shall be communication ready to indicate the status of the device (On/Off/Trip), Number
    of On/Off cycles and Number of Tripping over universally open Modbus protocol, so as to have seamless
    connectivity with any Energy and Building Management System.
