I bought Chtaixi 50A Two-Pole AC Breaker as part of my camper van equipment.

Separating the AC Breaker Identity from Lower-Rated Models
I pulled the roof cables through the PVC route with fish tape.
I fitted plastic trim around the roof opening where the wires entered the van.
I completed the remaining light connections, covered the boxes and joined the final conduit sections.

My Takeaway from This Job
The Chtaixi purchase identifies a fifty-amp AC DIN-rail product. The thirty- and forty-amp DIHOOL comparisons change the marked rating and product family, making these different component identities rather than the same breaker in another package.

Mounting
DIN rail
A DIN-rail breaker has a mounting relationship with the rail as well as an electrical identity on its label. For the purchased Chtaixi entry, the two linked poles and the C50 marking belong together in the component record. When planning an enclosure, note the space above and below the terminals and the access to the operating handle. Keep the AC designation visible in the notes so this entry remains distinct from the DC breaker purchases elsewhere in the kit.
Keep the pole count, AC product identity and mounting format together. The current marking alone does not describe every part of the component.
Alternative products
Two Alternatives to Compare
The two DIHOOL options use 40A and 30A ratings and are labeled for AC/DC applications; their ratings and product family differ from this 50A AC breaker.
