MCCB is actually the need to understand MCB is clear to most of the users.

MCB is for low current interruptions and has fixed current rating for trip. It will not trip at earth fault. It has low KA rating, it is suitable for simple over current application, less than 100 Aand has low cost.

MCCB (Molded case C.B) is for high current application normally above 100 A and also programmable/adjustable for earth fault, over/under voltage protections etc. It has high KA ratings,hence costly.

What is the difference between a tpn mccb and a 4 pole mccb?

The difference between a tpn mccb and a 4 pole mccb is rather negligible. The only real difference is that a 4 pole mccb works a little bit faster and allows for a strong network connection. The connection with a 4 pole mccb is just a bit more reliable.

What is the difference between MCB and MCCB?

MCB (Miniature Circuit Breaker)-rated current not more than 100 A. Trip characteristics normally not adjustable. Thermal or thermal-magnetic operation. Breakers illustrated above are in this category.MCCB (Molded Case Circuit Breaker)-rated current up to 2500 A. Thermal or thermal-magnetic operation. Trip current may be adjustable in larger ratings.
