The ABB S203‑C1 is a 3‑pole miniature circuit breaker (MCB) from ABB’s S200/S200P series designed to provide overload and short‑circuit protection for low‑voltage electrical circuits. It uses thermal and electromechanical tripping mechanisms to interrupt current when an overload or fault occurs, protecting wiring and devices from damage.
