Maxge Alpha+ 2P, 20A, C-curve, 6kA - EPB63ME2C20

The Maxge Alpha+ 2P, 20A circuit breaker is a circuit breaker designed to protect single-phase circuits easily and effectively against overloads and short circuits, offering a safe, reliable and easy to integrate solution in all types of electrical panels.

Thanks to its two-pole configuration (2P), its rated current of 20 A, tripping curve C and breaking capacity of 6 kA, it is a circuit breaker widely used in domestic, commercial and tertiary installations, ideal for lines with medium-high consumption, where stable and continuous protection is required.

This circuit breaker combines thermal protection and magnetic protection in a single device, allowing the power supply to be cut off when a current anomaly is detected, preventing damage to wiring, connected equipment and reducing the risk of electrical faults or accidents.

Main features of the Maxge Alpha+ 2P, 20A Miniature Circuit Breaker

Full bipolar protection

Being a 2-pole MCB (2P), The phase and neutral are protected at the same time.
This provides total isolation of the circuit when the circuit breaker is manually tripped or disconnected, increasing safety during maintenance work and reducing electrical hazards.

This configuration is particularly suitable for sensitive single-phase circuits, control and command lines, auxiliary circuits, automatisms, spot or technical lighting, small electronic equipment, and installations where the neutral needs to be cut off together with the phase.

More demanding loads

With a 20 ampere rated current, This circuit breaker is designed for circuits that support loads higher than the usual 16 A, such as dedicated lines or specific sockets.

It is very common to see it protecting heavily used sockets, lines dedicated to certain household appliances, small air-conditioning equipment, and circuits with several receivers operating simultaneously.

Provided that the cables are correctly dimensioned, this circuit breaker guarantees safe, stable and continuous operation of the circuit.

Balance between protection and stability

The Maxge Alpha+ 2P, 20A circuit-breaker incorporates a firing curve C. It is designed to tolerate moderate current peaks without causing untimely tripping.

The C-curve provides an optimum balance between sensitivity and stability, maintaining effective protection against dangerous overcurrents without affecting the normal operation of the installation.

This reduces nuisance shots.
In addition, the installation is more stable and good protection against real overloads and short circuits is maintained.

It is therefore suitable for circuits with general and mixed loads, small to medium-sized motors, starters, transformers, ventilation, pumps, air conditioning, electronic equipment and power supplies, lighting and three-phase sockets, and equipment that may have start-up peaks (without being extreme).

High short-circuit resistance

Your 6 kA breaking capacity means that it can safely interrupt major short circuits of up to 6,000 amperes without damage or loss of properties.

This is more than sufficient for homes, commercial premises, secondary switchboards and circuits far from the transformer.

It provides a good level of safety and protection for most common low voltage installations.

Easy installation and compact design

The Maxge Alpha+ 2P, 20A is designed for DIN rail mounting, This facilitates quick and tidy installation on any standard frame.

Your terminals are prepared to accept cables with a cross-section suitable for this current rating (16mm² in flexible cable and 25mm² in rigid cable). This guarantees firm and secure connections, without overheating or false contacts.

In addition, it has a compact 36 mm wide design (18 mm per pole), and it features window for circuit marker y a visual status signalling (on/off), The circuit it protects can be easily identified.
Therefore, it provides a quick diagnosis and is very easy to maintain.

Maxge Alpha+ 2P, 20A, C-curve, 6kA - EPB63ME2C20 - Operation and Applications

This circuit breaker protects the circuit in two ways:

• Thermal protection (overload): cuts off the current if there is a sustained overload, preventing both overheating of the cables and possible damage to the installation.
• Magnetic protection (short circuit): acts almost instantly when there is a strong short-circuit. When this happens, this circuit breaker cuts off the power supply and protects both the installation and the connected equipment.

It is an ideal solution for switchboards in homes, small shops and offices, high-demand socket circuits, and specific protection of single-phase lines.

Main advantages of Maxge Alpha+ 2P, 20A

The advantages of this circuit breaker are as follows:

• Simultaneous phase and neutral cut-off.
• Nominal current of 20 A, ideal for single-phase circuits with higher consumption.
• Balanced C-curve, no unnecessary tripping.
• 6 kA breaking capacity, sufficient for domestic and commercial use.
• Easy to install and maintain.
• Compact and robust design.
• Compliance with international quality norms and standards.
