Why Choose the ABB S203MT-K1 Miniature Circuit Breaker?
The ABB S203MT-K1 is a durable and compact 3-pole miniature circuit breaker (MCB) designed for dependable overcurrent and short-circuit protection in traction, railway and industrial control applications. As part of the specialist ABB S200MT miniature circuit breaker range, it is engineered for demanding environments where safety, reliability and consistent circuit protection are essential.
This MCB combines delayed thermal overload protection with an electromechanical short-circuit trip mechanism. The K characteristic is suitable for circuits with higher inrush currents, helping prevent nuisance tripping while maintaining effective protection for cables, control equipment and auxiliary electrical systems.
With a rated current of 1 A, a 3-pole configuration and a rated breaking capacity of 10 kA, the S203MT-K1 is well suited to low-current three-phase circuits used in control panels, signalling systems, automation equipment and transport-related installations. Its modular DIN rail design allows straightforward installation in electrical cabinets and distribution boards.
