Neutral Pole (N-pole)
A unique add on allowing the conversion of a 3 pole breaker into a 3 pole + switched neutral device with one shared component, so you do not need to stock 4 pole devices, making inventory savings.
 
Add on Neutral pole JTEC N2
Lockon, Lockoff Adaptors
Available in black or yellow, the lockon, lockoff adaptor allows the breaker to be locked, ON or OFF, thereby preventing accidental tripping of the breaker.

Techna's JtecUL product provides a full range of Miniature Circuit Breakers, UL recognized to UL 1077, file E243698.

Additionally, JtecUL is UL listed as a manual motor controller to standard 508 for industrial control equipment.

Available in trip curves B (quick), C (medium) and D (long delay) in current ratings from 0.5 to 63A, and all available in 1, 2, 3 or 4 poles, JtecUL 10kA MCBs offer maximum performance at excellent prices.


Benefits for Engineers and Designers
A. Many MCB's are only recognized to UL1077 which is a standard for supplementary protectors only. JtecUL goes further in that it is also listed to UL508. This rates JtecUL as suitable for use as a manual motor controller rated for motor disconnect. In simple terms you can replace the usual combination of disconnect switch, manual motor controller and a 1077 only breaker with our single JtecUL component.

UL508 listed Jtec is suitable for use in control panels without further UL investigation.

B. JtecUL has superior circuit protection ratings across the entire range. Many suppliers only offer the full breaking capacity (interrupt rating) at 230Vac (instead of 277V) and sometimes only for a limited range of current ratings.

C. JtecUL also meets European standard EN60898 for circuit breakers and is CE marked, ideal for manufacturers seeking to export their completed products into Europe.


Benefits for Service Engineers and Installers
A. JtecUL is suitable for field wiring - this means the product has been evaluated by UL as being suitable for direct field installation by a field service engineer (as opposed to factory fitted only.)

B. BBtecUL Busbars are UL recognized. They allow rapid busbar connection of multiple breakers using a single feed cable, saving time and money.
