Why Choose the ABB EPX-BPCXT1-4P MCCB Base Plate and Cover?
The ABB EPX-BPCXT1-4P, manufacturer order code 1SKV305041S0001, is a dedicated moulded case circuit breaker (MCCB) base plate and cover accessory designed for compatible ABB Tmax XT1 four-pole circuit breakers installed within ABB Protecta Power electrical distribution enclosures. This accessory provides the designated mounting and cover arrangement required to integrate an XT1 outgoing circuit breaker into a compatible low-voltage power distribution assembly.
As part of the ABB Protecta Power enclosure and distribution accessory range, the EPX-BPCXT1-4P supports the coordinated installation of four-pole MCCB devices. Its base plate provides a dedicated mounting arrangement, while the corresponding cover helps complete the outgoing device installation within the distribution board. The accessory is intended for electrical panel builders, switchboard manufacturers and installation engineers working with ABB Protecta Power systems.
The ABB EPX-BPCXT1-4P is identified by the manufacturer description as an XT1 four-pole MCCB base plate and cover with a >160 A designation. It is associated with the ABB Tmax XT1 frame, rated up to 160 A, and is supplied as an installation accessory rather than a complete protective device. The actual electrical protection characteristics are determined by the separately selected circuit breaker and the completed distribution assembly.

Reliable Four-Pole MCCB Installation for Electrical Distribution Systems
Four-pole moulded case circuit breakers are used in low-voltage electrical distribution systems where the installation requires a switching and protection arrangement incorporating three phase conductors and a neutral pole. The ABB EPX-BPCXT1-4P provides a dedicated mounting and cover arrangement for compatible ABB Tmax XT1 four-pole outgoing MCCBs, supporting their integration into Protecta Power distribution boards.
The ABB Protecta Power system incorporates coordinated enclosures, incoming switching equipment, outgoing protective devices and installation accessories for commercial and industrial power distribution. ABB specifies that an appropriate MCCB base plate and cover is required for each outgoing device and must be ordered separately from the circuit breaker. This arrangement allows installers to select the correct accessory for the designated MCCB frame and pole configuration.
The EPX-BPCXT1-4P is specifically associated with the four-pole Tmax XT1 arrangement. Although its product description contains a >160 A designation, the Tmax XT1 circuit breaker family has a maximum frame rating of 160 A. The designation should therefore not be interpreted as a verified continuous-current rating above 160 A for this accessory. Installers should verify the selected MCCB, enclosure compatibility and complete assembly requirements before installation.
Typical Applications
- ABB Protecta Power low-voltage electrical distribution boards.
- Four-pole ABB Tmax XT1 outgoing MCCB installations.
- Three-phase electrical distribution systems incorporating neutral switching.
- Commercial building electrical distribution assemblies.
- Industrial low-voltage switchboards and panelboards.
- Outgoing circuit breaker mounting and cover installations.
- Electrical panel building and switchboard manufacturing.
- Building services and electrical plant room distribution equipment.
- Warehouse, logistics and manufacturing facility electrical infrastructure.
- Compatible ABB Protecta Power maintenance and refurbishment projects.
