The ABB S202-C40 is a highly versatile and widely used 2-pole miniature circuit breaker (MCB) from the industry-standard S200 series.
This device is a compact, two-module MCB with a rated current of 40 Amperes and a "C" type tripping characteristic. Its primary function is to provide reliable and coordinated protection against overloads and short-circuits for a complete electrical circuit, disconnecting both live conductors simultaneously.
