Why Choose the ABB S801S-B32 High-Performance MCB?
The ABB S801S-B32 is a single-pole, 32 A high-performance miniature circuit breaker with a Type B tripping characteristic, designed to protect electrical circuits against overloads and short circuits. Part of ABB's S800S high-performance circuit breaker range, it combines substantial fault interruption capability with compact construction for demanding industrial and commercial distribution applications.
With a 50 kA short-circuit breaking capacity, the S801S-B32 is intended for installations where high prospective fault currents require greater interruption performance than conventional miniature circuit breakers may provide. Its Type B characteristic provides sensitive magnetic tripping and is suited to appropriately designed circuits with relatively low normal starting or inrush currents.
The S801S-B32 combines a thermal release for overload protection with an electromagnetic release for short-circuit protection. ABB's current-limiting S800S design rapidly interrupts fault currents to reduce thermal and electrodynamic stresses, while the DIN-rail format and modular S800 accessory system support efficient integration into professional switchgear and control panels.

High-Performance Type B Circuit Protection
The ABB S800S platform is engineered for electrical installations where high prospective fault currents require powerful interruption and current-limiting performance. During a short circuit, the S801S-B32 rapidly interrupts the fault and limits the energy passed through the device, helping reduce thermal and electrodynamic stresses on cables, equipment and the wider electrical distribution system.
Its Type B characteristic provides sensitive magnetic operation for appropriately designed circuits where normal load inrush is comparatively low. Combined with its 32 A current rating, high short-circuit capability and compatibility with ABB's extensive S800 accessory system, the S801S-B32 provides a flexible protection solution for professional distribution, control and automation installations.
Typical Applications
- Industrial electrical distribution systems.
- Commercial distribution boards and switchgear.
- Control and auxiliary power circuits.
- Resistive loads with relatively low normal inrush currents.
- Machine and automation control panels.
- Installations with high prospective short-circuit currents.
- Professional electrical panels requiring high-performance 32 A single-pole protection.
