MCBs should be applied where loads are resistive and do not have in-rush current.
The ideal application is lighting or electronic circuits.
TYPE C - Trip between 6-10 times rated current in a short circuit situation. C curve
MCBs should be applied where the loads have a small amount of in-rush current on
start-up. The ideal application is a circuit with a small transformer load.
TYPE D - Trip between 10-15 times rated current. D curve MCBs should be applied
where loads have a high level of in-rush current on start-up. The ideal application is a
circuit with a motor load.
