Why Choose the ABB S301P-D50 Miniature Circuit Breaker?
The ABB S301P-D50 is a high-quality miniature circuit breaker (MCB) from the ABB System pro M compact S300P series, designed to provide dependable protection for AC electrical circuits. This 1-pole circuit breaker has a rated current of 50 A and a D tripping characteristic, making it suitable for applications where higher starting or inrush currents may occur.
With a rated breaking capacity of 25 kA, the S301P-D50 provides effective interruption of overload and short-circuit faults. Its 1-pole configuration enables protection of a single circuit pole without a neutral pole, making it suitable for a wide range of single-phase distribution, control and equipment protection applications.
Designed for convenient installation, the ABB S301P-D50 is suitable for DIN-rail mounting and forms part of ABB's System pro M compact modular protection platform, supporting organised and reliable electrical installations.

Dependable D-Characteristic Protection for Higher-Inrush Circuits
The D tripping characteristic of the ABB S301P-D50 is designed for electrical circuits where higher starting or inrush currents may occur during normal equipment operation. This characteristic helps accommodate short-duration starting currents while providing protection against excessive overcurrent conditions.
The thermal protection function responds to sustained overload conditions, while magnetic protection provides rapid operation during high-current short-circuit faults. Combined with its 25 kA rated breaking capacity, the S301P-D50 provides dependable protection for AC distribution and control circuits.
