10A Push-to-Reset Thermal Circuit Breaker – Panel Mount

The 10A Push-to-Reset Thermal Circuit Breaker is a compact, reusable overcurrent protection device designed to protect electrical circuits and equipment against excessive current.

Unlike a traditional disposable fuse, the circuit breaker can be manually reset after it trips, eliminating the need to replace a fuse after every overload condition.

Its compact panel-mount design and push-button reset make it suitable for power supplies, control panels, automotive electronics, DIY equipment and other electrical applications.

Push-to-Reset Operation

During normal operation, current passes through the circuit breaker.

If an excessive current condition persists, the internal thermal mechanism heats up and trips the breaker, opening the circuit and interrupting power.

After the fault has been corrected and the breaker has cooled sufficiently, press the red reset button to restore the circuit.

Reusable Alternative to a Fuse

Unlike a conventional fuse that must be replaced after operation, this circuit breaker can be reset and reused.

This makes it convenient for equipment that requires accessible circuit protection and simplifies maintenance.

Panel-Mount Design

The threaded front section allows the circuit breaker to be installed through a suitable panel opening and secured using the supplied mounting hardware.

The reset button remains accessible from the front of the equipment, while the electrical connections remain behind the panel.

Applications

Suitable for:

  • Power Supply Protection
  • Control Panels
  • DIY Electronics
  • Battery-Powered Equipment
  • Automotive Electrical Systems
  • Marine Electrical Systems
  • Robotics Projects
  • Motor Control Systems
  • Test Equipment
  • Electrical Distribution Panels
  • Industrial Equipment
  • Electronic Prototypes

Important Note

The 10A rating is the circuit breaker's nominal current rating. It should not be used as a normal ON/OFF switch unless the specific breaker model is designed for that purpose.

The exact maximum AC/DC voltage rating, interrupting capacity, trip curve and certifications depend on the manufacturer and model. These specifications should be verified from the markings on the actual product before use.

Always disconnect power before installation.

For mains-voltage applications, installation should be carried out by a qualified person and must comply with applicable electrical safety requirements.
