Why Choose the ABB MBS124 Busbar Module Expansion 1PW?
The ABB MBS124 is a CombiLine horizontal busbar expansion module designed for structured power distribution within compatible ABB low-voltage distribution cabinets. Supplied under ABB order code 2CPX041737R9999, it forms part of the ABB DESUJ Sub Distribution product group and provides the supporting components required to integrate a horizontal copper busbar system into a CombiLine assembly.
Designed for a 1-panel-width (1PW) configuration, the MBS124 measures 300 × 250 × 200 mm and provides 24 space units. It supports a horizontal busbar system with a 40 mm busbar centre distance, accommodates up to 5 copper busbars and is supplied with ZB5 busbar holders and the associated busbar system arrangement.
The MBS124 supports a maximum rated current of 360 A and is intended for 5-pole busbar configurations. The required copper busbars are ordered separately, allowing the installation to be configured using compatible rail dimensions. Closed RAL 7035 plastic covers with 90-degree press-and-turn fasteners provide a protected finished installation, while the EDF or WR mounting frame is also ordered separately.

Compact Horizontal Busbar Distribution up to 360 A
Horizontal busbar systems provide a robust method of distributing electrical power through low-voltage switchboard and sub-distribution assemblies. The ABB MBS124 provides the supporting structure for a 5-pole system with busbars positioned at 40 mm centres, allowing compatible copper rails to be arranged securely within a compact 1PW CombiLine field.
The module can accommodate up to five copper rails, with compatible 12 × 5 mm rails suitable for lower-current configurations and 12 × 10 mm rails supporting applications up to the module's maximum 360 A rating. Because the copper busbars are ordered separately, the busbar arrangement can be selected to suit the required distribution capacity while retaining the standardised CombiLine mounting system.
Typical Applications
- ABB CombiLine low-voltage distribution cabinets.
- Horizontal power distribution busbar systems.
- 5-pole low-voltage distribution arrangements.
- Commercial and industrial sub-distribution boards.
- Switchboard power distribution up to 360 A.
- Professional panel-building and system integration projects.
