Motor Circuit Breaker 1A 1 Pole

The Schneider Electric GB2CB06 is a single-pole motor circuit breaker rated for 1 A and 300 V AC. It mounts on a DIN rail and uses clip connections for conductors between 16 AWG and 12 AWG. The grey housing measures 3 in long, 1.2 in wide and 3.3 in deep. It meets EN/IEC 60947-1, EN/IEC 60947-2, CSA C22.2 No 235 and UL 1077 standards.

Standards and Mounting

Compliance with EN/IEC 60947-1, EN/IEC 60947-2, CSA C22.2 No 235 and UL 1077 means the breaker is recognised for industrial control panels and motor protection in regulated installations. The DIN-rail mount and clip terminals allow fast installation without specialised tools. The single-tier, one-pole format keeps the footprint narrow for dense panel layouts.

Installation Checks

Verify that the control circuit operates at or below 300 V AC and that the motor full-load current does not exceed 1 A. Confirm the panel uses a standard DIN rail and that wiring falls within the 16 AWG to 12 AWG range. Ensure the 3 in by 1.2 in by 3.3 in envelope fits the available space and that local codes accept the listed standards. Buyers needing multi-pole protection or higher current ratings must select a different device.

Questions about this item

Will the GB2CB06 need any periodic recalibration or replacement of internal parts during normal service?

The breaker is a sealed thermal-magnetic device with no user-serviceable components; it remains in service until it trips and cannot be reset, at which point the complete unit is replaced.

What is the first limitation the GB2CB06 hits when it runs continuously at its 1 A rating?

Continuous operation at 1 A is within the rated current, so the first limit reached is the 300 V AC maximum voltage — exceeding that voltage would violate the breaker's insulation rating before any current-related limit is met.

How much heat does the GB2CB06 dissipate and does it need extra cooling when mounted on a DIN rail all day?

At 1 A the thermal dissipation is low enough that the standard DIN-rail mounting in a ventilated enclosure provides sufficient cooling; no forced-air or heatsink accessories are required.
