2CCS882001R0161 ABB S802C-D16 High Performance MCB 16 A 2P Type D 25 kA

Why Choose the ABB S802C-D16 High Performance MCB?

The ABB S802C-D16 is a high-performance two-pole miniature circuit breaker (MCB) designed to provide reliable overload and short-circuit protection in demanding commercial and industrial electrical systems. As part of the ABB S800C high-performance circuit breaker series, it combines compact DIN-rail installation with high breaking capacity for electrical distribution and machinery applications.

This circuit breaker features a Type D tripping characteristic and a rated current of 16 A. The D characteristic is designed for circuits with high inrush or starting currents, making the S802C-D16 particularly suitable for equipment such as motors, transformers and other inductive loads where conventional characteristics may trip unnecessarily during normal start-up.

With a rated ultimate short-circuit breaking capacity of 25 kA, the S802C-D16 provides robust fault protection for installations with elevated prospective short-circuit currents. Its two-pole configuration disconnects both poles together, while the proven S800 construction supports dependable operation in distribution boards, machinery panels and industrial control systems.

Reliable High-Performance Circuit Protection

The ABB S800C range is engineered to protect electrical installations against overload and short-circuit conditions while providing substantially higher breaking capacity than conventional final-distribution MCBs. The S802C-D16 combines thermal overload protection with rapid magnetic fault interruption to protect conductors and connected equipment.

Its D-characteristic allows the breaker to tolerate the temporary high currents associated with starting motors, energising transformers and switching other inductive equipment. This makes it particularly useful in industrial installations where reliable protection must be combined with resistance to nuisance tripping during normal equipment operation.

Typical Applications

• Industrial machinery and automation systems.
• Motor and inductive-load circuits.
• Transformer supply circuits.
• Industrial electrical distribution panels.
• Machinery and production control panels.
• Circuits requiring Type D overload and short-circuit protection.
