Why Choose the ABB S302P-K32 Miniature Circuit Breaker?
The ABB S302P-K32 (Product ID: 2CDS382001R0537) is a high-performance 2-pole miniature circuit breaker (MCB) designed to protect industrial electrical installations against overloads and short circuits. Part of the established ABB System pro M compact S300P series, it combines robust construction, dependable switching performance and a high short-circuit breaking capacity.
Featuring a Type K tripping characteristic, the S302P-K32 is particularly suitable for circuits supplying motors, transformers, compressors, solenoids and other inductive equipment with elevated starting currents. The K curve helps reduce unwanted tripping during normal start-up conditions while providing rapid disconnection when a genuine electrical fault occurs.
With a rated current of 32 A, a fully protected 2-pole configuration and an ultimate short-circuit breaking capacity of up to 25 kA, the ABB S302P-K32 is an excellent choice for industrial control panels, production machinery, automation systems and demanding electrical distribution applications.

Reliable Protection for Industrial Electrical Systems
The ABB S302P-K32 uses thermal and electromagnetic tripping mechanisms to disconnect the circuit during overload and short-circuit conditions. This helps protect cables, machinery and connected equipment against overheating, excessive fault currents and potentially costly electrical damage.
Its Type K characteristic is designed to accommodate the temporary inrush currents commonly produced by motors, transformers and electromagnetic equipment. This makes the breaker especially valuable in industrial applications where a standard fast-acting characteristic could cause unnecessary interruptions during equipment start-up.
Typical Applications
- Industrial motor circuits.
- Transformer and solenoid protection.
- Compressors, pumps and ventilation equipment.
- Industrial control panels.
- OEM machinery and production equipment.
- Automation and material-handling systems.
- Commercial and industrial distribution boards.
