Why Choose the ABB F204ACS-40/0.5 Residual Current Circuit Breaker?
The ABB F204ACS-40/0.5, also known as F204 AC-40/0.5, is a high quality 4 pole residual current circuit breaker (RCCB) designed to protect people and electrical installations against earth fault currents. As part of the proven ABB F200 series, it delivers dependable earth leakage protection for commercial, industrial and infrastructure electrical systems.
This RCCB features Type AC residual current protection, making it suitable for detecting alternating sinusoidal residual currents. With a 500 mA residual operating current, it is commonly installed for upstream fault protection and fire protection in electrical distribution systems, helping minimise damage caused by insulation faults.
With a 40 A rated current, 500 mA residual current sensitivity and 4 pole configuration, the ABB F204ACS-40/0.5 is ideal for protecting three phase distribution boards, industrial control panels and commercial electrical installations.
