As always, if you are in doubt about what to do, the best advice anyone should give you is to call a licensed electrician to advise what work is needed.
Before you do any work yourself,
on electrical circuits, equipment or appliances,
always use a test meter to ensure the circuit is, in fact, de-energized IF YOU ARE NOT ALREADY SURE YOU CAN DO THIS JOB
SAFELY AND COMPETENTLY
REFER THIS WORK TO QUALIFIED PROFESSIONALS.
TPN is same as 4P MCB TPN means Three Pole and Neutral - four pole MCB. 4P is four pole MCB
MCB = Miniature Circuit Breaker DP = Double Pole
the (mcb) is miniature circuit breaker SPN is Single Pole w/neutral DP is double pole TPN is tripple pole w/neutral)MCB =Miniature circuit breaker b)SPN=Single pole and neutral ( 1 terminal for live and 1 terminal for Neutral cable for wire connection. Pole refers to a power cable connection on the MCB) c)TPN=Triple Pole & Neutral (ie. altogether 4 cable input and 4 cable out from the MCB) d) DP refers to Double Pole (with no specific neutral terminal.Still one pole may be used for that. The A refers to rated Current in amperes. Also important is ( i) the rated voltages which will govern the given in Amperes.(ii) Duty it is meant for eg. lighting , motor power etc. (Motor duty for eg is A3). Also whether AC or C supply.
TPN MCB means Triple pole Neutral Miniature Circuit Breaker where as SPN MCB means single phase Neutral MCB.
A single pole circuit breaker can protect one hot wire to a given load where as a two pole circuit breaker can protect two hot wires to a given load. In the North American system this would equate to 120 volts on a single pole circuit breaker and 240 volts on a two pole circuit breaker.
While selecting an MCB you have to check: 1) Current Rating; 2) Response Time; 3) Manufacturer; 4) Type of MCB (means single pole, double pole, three pole, four pole - it depends on the application); 5) Cost; 6) short circuit breaking capacity.

32A MCB to be used
Bs60898 mcb's type b are used in a domestic supply in the distribution board combined with a rcd for safe protection
mcb is master circuit breaker. it is used in the circuit for the protection of equipments from over voltage.
the circuit breaker used will be miniature circuit breaker(MCB) maily used in homes.Answer for USA, Canada and countries running a 60 Hertz supply service.A two pole circuit breaker is used for a load of 240 volts. It is sized, according to the load amps of the device, to protect the wires that supply the load current.
MCB, Miniature Circuit Breaker is electric switch which is used to protect against short circuits
i have required lightings amps rating, how many circuit ku how much amps mcb fixing?
