Why Choose the ABB MBB216 Touch Protection Expansion 2PW?
The ABB MBB216 is a CombiLine touch protection expansion module designed to provide a closed protective section within compatible ABB low-voltage distribution cabinets. Supplied under ABB order code 2CPX041723R9999, it forms part of the ABB DESUJ Sub Distribution product group and can be used either as touch protection or as a field for expansion with compatible system components.
Designed for a 2-panel-width (2PW) configuration, the MBB216 has a nominal module size of 150 mm high × 500 mm wide and provides 24 space units. The module uses closed plastic covers to create a protected front-facing section without DIN rails or a mounting plate.
The MBB216 is supplied as an unassembled kit and is suitable for installation from a cabinet depth of 120 mm. Its closed covers are finished in RAL 7035 and secured using 90-degree press-and-turn fasteners, while the required compatible EDF or WR mounting frame is ordered separately.

Touch Protection and Flexible System Expansion
Touch protection modules are used within low-voltage distribution assemblies to provide a closed barrier over areas where direct access is not required. The ABB MBB216 provides a 500 mm-wide closed field that helps create an organised and protected cabinet front while maintaining the modular structure of the CombiLine system.
In addition to its protective function, the MBB216 can be used as a module for expansion with compatible system components. Its 2PW format, 24 space units and compatibility with ABB mounting-frame arrangements make it a practical component for configuring customised sub-distribution assemblies.
Typical Applications
- ABB CombiLine low-voltage distribution cabinets.
- Touch protection within electrical distribution assemblies.
- Closed protective fields in sub-distribution panels.
- Expansion with compatible ABB system components.
- Commercial and industrial switchboards.
- Professional panel-building and system integration projects.
