Why Choose the ABB S204C32 Miniature Circuit Breaker?
The ABB S204C32, also identified as S204-C32, is a premium four-pole miniature circuit breaker (MCB) designed to provide dependable protection against overloads and short circuits. Part of the renowned ABB System pro M compact S200 series, it is suitable for residential, commercial and industrial electrical installations.
The breaker incorporates a delayed thermal tripping mechanism for overload protection together with an electromechanical tripping mechanism for rapid short-circuit interruption. Its C-curve tripping characteristic makes it ideal for circuits supplying lighting, HVAC equipment, control panels, distribution boards and machinery with moderate inrush currents.
With a rated current of 32 A, a four-pole configuration and a rated short-circuit capacity of 6 kA at 230/400 V AC, the S204C32 delivers reliable protection for three-phase systems with neutral switching. Its compact modular construction enables quick installation on a standard 35 mm DIN rail inside electrical distribution boards and switchboards.
