Why Choose the ABB S803S-K6-R High Performance MCB?
The ABB S803S-K6-R is a high-performance three-pole miniature circuit breaker (MCB) designed to provide reliable overload and short-circuit protection in demanding electrical installations. As part of the ABB S800S high-performance circuit breaker series, it combines high breaking capacity with robust modular construction for professional commercial and industrial circuit protection.
This circuit breaker has a rated current of 6 A and a Type K tripping characteristic. Type K protection is particularly suited to circuits supplying motors, transformers, control equipment and other inductive loads that can experience elevated starting currents, helping accommodate normal inrush conditions while maintaining effective overload and short-circuit protection.
With three protected poles and a short-circuit breaking capacity of 50 kA, the S803S-K6-R provides high-performance protection for installations where substantial prospective fault currents may occur. Its R variant, Type K characteristic and three-pole configuration make it suitable for industrial control, machinery and distribution applications requiring dependable low-current protection for inductive loads.

High-Performance Protection for Motor and Inductive Loads
Miniature circuit breakers protect electrical circuits against excessive current resulting from overloads and short circuits. The ABB S803S-K6-R provides coordinated circuit protection while its Type K characteristic makes it particularly appropriate for electrical equipment that can draw significant current during normal start-up.
Motors, transformers, contactor circuits and other inductive loads can produce inrush currents substantially above their normal operating current. A Type K characteristic helps accommodate these starting conditions while retaining dependable protection against genuine electrical faults, making the 6 A S803S-K6-R particularly useful for lower-current industrial control and inductive-load circuits.
Typical Applications
- Three-phase motor and auxiliary circuits.
- Transformer and inductive-load circuits.
- Industrial machinery and automation equipment.
- Industrial control panels and contactor circuits.
- Commercial and industrial electrical distribution systems.
- Applications requiring high short-circuit breaking capacity.
