Why Choose the ABB MBU157 Meter Plate Expansion 1PW?
The ABB MBU157 is a modular meter plate expansion from the ABB CombiLine interior expansion system. Supplied under ABB order code 2CPX041811R9999, this unassembled measuring-device module provides dedicated installation positions for panel-mounted measuring instruments within compatible low-voltage sub-distribution assemblies.
Designed in a compact 1PW / one-field-width format, the MBU157 measures 250 mm wide × 300 mm high and provides 24 space units. It is unpopulated and designed to accommodate up to four measuring devices with 96 × 96 mm installation dimensions, arranged horizontally within the module.
The MBU157 features plastic covers with equipment cut-outs, finished in RAL 7035 and secured using 90-degree press-and-turn closures. It is suitable for installation from a cabinet depth of 225 mm and can be used with compatible ABB EDF or WR mounting frames, which are ordered separately.

Organised Measuring-Device Integration for Distribution Assemblies
Panel-mounted measuring instruments provide operators with direct access to electrical measurements and system information within low-voltage distribution equipment. The ABB MBU157 provides four dedicated 96 × 96 mm measuring-device positions within a compact one-field-wide module, supporting an orderly and consistent instrumentation layout.
The module’s prepared cover cut-outs and horizontal device arrangement simplify the integration of compatible measuring instruments into CombiLine assemblies. Used with the appropriate EDF or WR mounting frame, the MBU157 provides panel builders with a coordinated ABB solution for incorporating metering and monitoring equipment into professional distribution systems.
Typical Applications
- ABB CombiLine sub-distribution assemblies.
- Panel-mounted electrical measuring instruments.
- Low-voltage distribution-board metering.
- Commercial and industrial switchboards.
- Electrical monitoring and instrumentation panels.
- Panel-building and distribution-board expansion projects.
