Why Choose the ABB MBN274 N+PE / Terminal Expansion 2PW?
The ABB MBN274 is a modular N/PE busbar and terminal expansion kit designed for ABB CombiLine N electrical distribution systems. Supplied under ABB order code 2CPX041748R9999, this unassembled interior fitting module provides a structured solution for installing neutral and protective earth busbars together with terminal blocks inside compatible sub-distribution enclosures.
The MBN274 combines provision for a 2-pole N/PE busbar system with an additional DIN rail for terminal blocks. Its DIN rail can be continuously adjusted in depth using the mounting arrangement, providing a usable depth of 90–145 mm. The module incorporates ABB ZX518 busbar holders and supports up to two copper busbars, which are ordered separately.
With a module height of 300 mm and a 2 PW / 500 mm field width, the MBN274 provides 48 space units and approximately 438 mm usable terminal width. The busbar system supports a rated current of up to 440 A, making this module suitable for substantial commercial and industrial sub-distribution applications.

Flexible N/PE Distribution and Terminal Mounting
N/PE busbar modules provide dedicated infrastructure for neutral and protective earth distribution within electrical assemblies. The ABB MBN274 combines this function with an additional DIN rail for terminal blocks, allowing installers to organise power distribution and field wiring efficiently within a single modular section.
The depth-adjustable DIN rail and generous 438 mm usable terminal width provide flexibility when accommodating different terminal configurations. Combined with support for a 2-pole horizontal busbar system rated up to 440 A, the MBN274 provides a versatile solution for professional CombiLine N sub-distribution assemblies.
Typical Applications
- Electrical sub-distribution boards.
- ABB CombiLine N distribution assemblies.
- Neutral and protective earth busbar distribution.
- Terminal block mounting and field wiring.
- Commercial and industrial electrical installations.
