SERIES 1536
Miniature Protection Ambient-Temperature Compensated
3-Pole High Performance
Three-Phase Protection: Features
common trip mechanism which
simultaneously trips all three phases
regardless of which phase is over-
loaded
Integral Barriers: Terminals are
separated by barriers molded into
the case
Single-Hole Mounting: For quick,
easy installation
Shock And Vibration Resistant
Construction: Permits use in
portable, mobile, and all types of
airborne equipment
The 1536-001 is a lightweight, miniature
breaker that features three bimetal
sensing elements having very fast elec-
tro-dynamic response under short cir-
cuit conditions, and standard trip char-
acteristics at lower levels of overloads.
A common trip mechanism assures
simultaneous trip of all three phases,
regardless of which phase is over -
loaded.
Single hole mounting and small size
facilitate easy installation. The breaker’s
one-piece, glass-filled case features
integrally-molded barriers to separate
the terminals.
