The ABB AUX‑C 3Q1SY‑Cabled 250 VAC/DC (T1‑T3) is an auxiliary contact accessory designed to be fitted to ABB SACE Tmax T series molded‑case circuit breakers (frames T1, T2, T3). It provides remote electrical signaling of the breaker’s status, adding multiple changeover (SPDT) contacts that reflect the mechanical position of the breaker and a dedicated contact for trip indication. The pre‑wired module comes with a cable for easy connection into control and monitoring circuits. This auxiliary contact block is used where additional feedback (breaker ON/OFF) and trip condition indication are required for PLCs, annunciators, control logic, or alarm systems in industrial electrical distribution panels.
