Features:

A 16 Amp circuit breaker is designed to trip automatically when the current in a circuit exceeds the 16A limit, effectively preventing overheating, equipment damage, and potential fire risks. This rating is suitable for mid-range electrical appliances and circuit sections in homes, offices, workshops, and industrial control panels.

Teknic’s 16A breakers are built using high-grade materials, precision components, and advanced trip mechanisms to ensure long service life and safe operation in demanding environments.
