2CPX041810R9999 ABB MBU357 Meter Plate Expansion 3PW

Why Choose the ABB MBU357 Meter Plate Expansion 3PW?

The ABB MBU357 is a CombiLine measuring device expansion module designed for integrating panel-mounted electrical measuring instruments into compatible ABB low-voltage distribution cabinets. Supplied under ABB order code 2CPX041810R9999, it forms part of the ABB DESUJ Sub Distribution product group and provides a dedicated, factory-prepared field for switchboard metering and monitoring equipment.

Designed for a 3-panel-width (3PW) configuration, the MBU357 has a nominal size of 150 mm high × 750 mm wide and provides 36 space units. The module is supplied unequipped and is prepared for the installation of 4 measuring instruments with 96 × 96 mm installation dimensions, arranged horizontally across the field.

The MBU357 is supplied as an unassembled kit with plastic covers incorporating the required instrument cut-outs and mounting on a cross beam. The covers are finished in RAL 7035 and secured using 90-degree press-and-turn fasteners. It is suitable for cabinets from 225 mm depth and can be installed using compatible ABB EDF or WR mounting frames, which must be ordered separately.

Key Advantages

Wide-Format Mounting for Four 96 × 96 mm Measuring Instruments

The ABB MBU357 provides a dedicated 750 mm-wide metering field for four measuring instruments with 96 × 96 mm installation dimensions. Its horizontal arrangement allows multiple electrical measurements to be presented together in a clear switchboard interface, making the module suitable for compatible ammeters, voltmeters, multifunction meters and other panel-mounted measuring devices.

Because the MBU357 is supplied unequipped, the measuring instruments can be selected according to the monitoring requirements of the distribution system. The prepared cut-out covers and mounting cross beam simplify integration into compatible ABB cabinet assemblies, while the 3PW format provides additional horizontal space compared with narrower CombiLine measuring device modules.
