Reliable Circuit Protection for Electrical Installations
Miniature circuit breakers protect electrical circuits by automatically interrupting the current when an overload or short circuit occurs. The ABB S204M-C3 combines this protective function with a four-pole configuration, making it suitable for applications requiring coordinated protection across multiple conductors.
The C characteristic allows the breaker to accommodate higher short-duration inrush currents than a B-characteristic device before tripping, making it suitable for a range of circuits supplying equipment with moderate starting currents. Its modular format enables integration into electrical distribution and control systems using standard DIN-rail installation.
Typical Applications
- Commercial electrical distribution boards.
- Industrial control panels and machinery circuits.
- Building services and electrical installations.
- Low-current AC control and auxiliary circuits.
- Automation and control system protection.
- General low-voltage circuit protection.
