This article explains how to choose the right electrical wire size, MCB and wire for a residential
commercial building.

What is MCB?
A miniature circuit breaker (MCB) automatically switches off the electrical circuit in the event of an
abnormal overload or short circuit of the power network. Currently, MCBs are used for low voltage (230 V,
110 V) electrical branch circuits instead of fuses.
