Out of stock
The GDDC5-63 1-Pole 40A DC Miniature Circuit Breaker (MCB) is engineered for precise overload and short-circuit protection in single-pole DC circuits up to 250V DC. This 40A model is ideal for higher-current branch protection in photovoltaic arrays, battery energy storage systems, telecom DC distribution, and industrial DC control panels. Compact at just 18 mm wide, it supports infrequent manual switching under normal conditions and features a front contact position indicator for quick operational status checks. For higher voltage or multi-pole applications, matching 2P (500V DC) and 4P (1000V DC) versions are available.
