Why Choose the ABB F204 A-40/0.03 400Hz Residual Current Circuit Breaker?
The ABB F204 A-40/0.03 400Hz is a specialist four-pole residual current circuit breaker (RCCB) designed to provide dependable earth fault protection in electrical systems operating at frequencies of up to 400 Hz. As part of the proven ABB F200 RCCB series, it safeguards both personnel and electrical installations by disconnecting the supply when dangerous earth leakage currents are detected.
This Type A RCCB detects alternating residual currents and pulsating DC residual currents generated by modern electrical equipment. Its 40 A rated current and 30 mA residual operating current make it ideal for high-sensitivity protection in specialist high-frequency electrical systems including aerospace, marine and defence applications.
Featuring a compact four-pole DIN rail mounted design, the ABB F204 A-40/0.03 400Hz is engineered for reliable operation where conventional 50/60 Hz RCCBs are unsuitable, delivering trusted ABB protection for demanding industrial environments.
