Why Choose the ABB OS250BS03K Side-Operated Switch Fuse?

The ABB OS250BS03K is a robust 250 A 3-pole side-operated switch fuse designed for reliable switching, isolation and fuse protection in industrial low-voltage electrical systems. Identified by ABB order code 1SCA022860R4450, this model belongs to the ABB OS switch fuse range and is designed for British Standard fuse links.

This specific OS250BS03K configuration features a side-operated mechanism positioned on the left together with a direct-mounted handle. This arrangement provides convenient local operation directly at the switch fuse and is particularly suitable for industrial switchgear layouts where side operation is preferred.

With a rated current of 250 A, three poles and compatibility with B1–B3 fuse sizes, the OS250BS03K provides dependable fused isolation at operational voltages up to 690 V AC. The direct-mounted black handle, operating shaft and terminal bolt kit are included, providing a practical complete assembly for industrial installation.

Key Advantages

  • 250 A rated current for demanding industrial distribution circuits.
  • 3-pole configuration suitable for three-phase systems.
  • Combines switching, isolation and fuse protection in one assembly.
  • Side-operated mechanism on the left for specialised switchgear layouts.
  • Direct-mounted handle supplied as standard.
  • Compatible with B1–B3 British Standard fuse links.

Key Features

  • ABB OS250 switch fuse.
  • 250 A rated current.
  • 3-pole design.
  • Side-operated configuration.
  • 03 mechanism positioned on the left side.
  • Direct-mounted handle included.
  • Designed for B1–B3 British Standard fuse links.
  • AC-20 to AC-23 operation up to 690 V AC.
  • AC-23 rated operational power of 145 / 170 / 250 kW at 415 / 500 / 690 V AC.
  • Base-mounted construction with lug terminals.

Direct Side-Operated Fused Isolation

Switch fuses combine manual circuit switching and isolation with fuse-based overcurrent and short-circuit protection. Correctly selected fuse links provide circuit protection, while the switching mechanism enables equipment and feeders to be positively disconnected for operation, servicing and maintenance.

The ABB OS250BS03K is specifically configured with its operating mechanism on the left and a direct-mounted handle. This design provides convenient local operation without requiring a separate enclosure-door operating arrangement, making it particularly useful in compatible industrial switchboards, machinery and distribution assemblies.

Typical Applications

  • Industrial low-voltage distribution boards.
  • Three-phase fused isolation circuits.
  • Switchgear and switchboard assemblies.
  • Industrial machinery power isolation.
  • Fused feeder and distribution circuits.
  • OEM and process-industry electrical systems.
