DOEPKE DLS 6H B13-3 installatieautomaat 3-polig 13A 6kA 09914112

Electrical circuits need reliable protection against overloads and short circuits, especially in residential and commercial installations. The DOEPKE DLS 6H B13-3 is a 3-pole miniature circuit breaker (MCB) engineered to safeguard cables and connected equipment. With a rated current of 13 A and a breaking capacity of 6 kA, it trips quickly on fault currents, preventing damage and fire hazards. Its B tripping characteristic makes it ideal for circuits with moderate inrush currents, such as lighting and socket outlets.

Who is it for

This MCB is intended for electricians, panel builders, and facility managers who need dependable circuit protection in distribution boards. It suits residential, commercial, and light industrial applications where three-phase circuits require coordinated overload and short-circuit protection.
