Why Choose the ABB ZK600 Quick Carrier 15 Units for UK600 Enclosures?
The ABB ZK600 Quick Carrier 15 Units (2CPX063178R9999) is a genuine ABB terminal mounting accessory designed for the UK600 Enclosures range. It provides a dedicated support for compatible neutral (N) and protective earth (PE) quick-plug terminal blocks, helping electrical installers create organised and adaptable conductor termination arrangements within UK600 distribution boards.
The ZK600 offers a usable terminal mounting width of 247 mm, equivalent to 15 ABB quick-plug terminal modules. Its modular design allows different compatible terminal block sizes to be combined on a shared carrier, enabling installers to configure neutral and protective earth connections according to the requirements of the distribution assembly.
Manufactured from white plastic, the carrier measures 294 mm wide, 29 mm high and 22 mm deep. It supports tool-free carrier mounting through a simple plug-in mechanism, providing a practical solution for professional consumer unit installation, terminal arrangement changes and compatible enclosure upgrades.

15-Unit Capacity for Flexible Neutral and Earth Terminal Arrangements
The ABB ZK600 provides a practical mounting platform for compatible neutral and protective earth terminal blocks. With a 247 mm usable width and capacity for 15 ABB quick-plug terminal modules, it supports flexible terminal configurations within the UK600 distribution enclosure system.
The 15-unit specification refers to the carrier's terminal-module capacity, not to 15 individual conductor connection points. The actual number of neutral and protective earth conductor connections depends on the compatible terminal blocks selected and their individual connection capacities.
This distinction is important when designing an electrical distribution board. A terminal block may provide multiple conductor connection points while occupying only a portion of the available carrier width. Installers can therefore select an appropriate combination of terminal blocks to suit the intended circuit arrangement.
Tool-Free Quick-Plug Carrier Installation
The ZK600 uses ABB's quick-plug carrier mounting system, allowing the carrier to be fitted through a straightforward plug-in process without tools. This simplifies the installation of the terminal support assembly within compatible UK600 consumer units.
Once the carrier is correctly installed, suitable N and PE quick-plug terminal blocks can be arranged on the available mounting positions. The modular design allows different compatible terminal sizes to be used together, provided the combined arrangement remains within the carrier's usable width and follows ABB's installation requirements.
Tool-free carrier mounting does not mean that every conductor connection is tool-free. The conductor termination procedure depends on the selected terminal blocks, including their spring-clamp or screw-connection technology.
Modular Neutral and Protective Earth Terminal Configuration
The ABB ZK600 is particularly useful where a distribution board requires a tailored combination of neutral (N) and protective earth (PE) terminal blocks. Rather than relying on a fixed terminal arrangement, the carrier provides a shared mounting platform for suitable quick-plug terminal components.
This flexibility supports both initial enclosure assembly and later modifications where compatible terminal configurations need to be reviewed or expanded. The selected terminals must be suitable for the intended conductor sizes, electrical ratings and circuit arrangements.
Neutral and protective earth connections have different electrical functions. The carrier provides the mounting support only; it does not electrically connect the installed terminal blocks or replace the need for correct neutral separation, protective conductor continuity and appropriate circuit protection.
Installation and UK600 Compatibility Considerations
The ABB ZK600 2CPX063178R9999 is designed for compatible ABB UK6... consumer units within the UK600 enclosure range. Before installation, the installer should confirm the enclosure model, designated carrier mounting position and selected terminal block combination.
The carrier's overall width of 294 mm differs from its 247 mm usable terminal width. The full product dimensions must be considered when checking available enclosure space, while the usable width determines the permitted arrangement of quick-plug terminal modules.
The ZK600 is a mechanical terminal support component, not a complete neutral or protective earth terminal assembly. It does not independently provide conductor connection points, an electrical current rating or an enclosure protection rating. The completed installation must comply with ABB's instructions and the applicable electrical installation requirements.
