Schneider Electric C60N13A Type C Circuit Breaker

Description:

The Merlin GERIN Multi 9 C60N 13A Type C circuit breaker is used in industrial electrical distribution systems to provide protection against overloads and short circuits in 3-phase and control power circuits. It is commonly installed in motor control panels, OEM machinery, and industrial automation systems operating at up to 480V AC where reliable branch circuit protection is required. Maintenance teams and electrical engineers use this breaker for replacement of protective devices in legacy and modern control panels.

Applications:

The Merlin GERIN C60N 13A Type C breaker is commonly used in industrial control cabinets, motor control centers, HVAC systems, conveyor equipment, and automation machinery where circuit protection for inductive loads is required. It is typically installed in manufacturing environments for protecting control circuits, small motors, transformers, and auxiliary power distribution systems.
