Why Choose the ABB S802S-C8 High Performance MCB?
The ABB S802S-C8 is a high-performance two-pole miniature circuit breaker (MCB) designed to provide reliable overload and short-circuit protection in demanding electrical installations. Part of the ABB S800S high-performance circuit breaker range, this model combines an 8 A rated current, Type C tripping characteristic and 50 kA breaking-capacity class.
The S802S-C8 combines thermal overload protection with rapid electromagnetic short-circuit tripping. Its Type C characteristic is suited to general-purpose circuits and equipment with moderate starting or inrush currents, while the current-limiting operating principle helps reduce electrical and thermal stresses during severe short-circuit conditions.
With its 2-pole configuration, robust S800S construction and high fault-current capability, the S802S-C8 is well suited to industrial distribution, machinery, automation, control and commercial electrical systems. ABB order code 2CCS862001R0084 identifies this specific 8 A Type C model.
