Why Choose the ABB S203MT-C3 Miniature Circuit Breaker?
The ABB S203MT-C3 is a high-performance 3-pole miniature circuit breaker (MCB) from the specialist ABB S200MT series. It is designed to provide dependable overload and short circuit protection for railway, traction, rolling stock and demanding industrial applications where reliability, compact installation and consistent protection are essential.
Featuring a C characteristic tripping curve, the S203MT-C3 is suitable for circuits with moderate inrush currents, including control equipment, auxiliary railway circuits, automation panels and industrial electrical systems. ABB's current limiting design helps reduce fault energy, while thermal and electromechanical tripping mechanisms provide reliable protection during normal operation.
With a 3 A rated current, 3 protected poles, 10 kA breaking capacity and DIN rail mounted construction, the ABB S203MT-C3 is ideal for low-current three-phase protection in transport infrastructure, rolling stock cabinets, control panels and OEM machinery.
