Why Choose the ABB S802C-D40 High Performance MCB?
The ABB S802C-D40 is a 2-pole high performance miniature circuit breaker (MCB) designed to protect electrical circuits against overload and short-circuit conditions. Part of the ABB S800 high performance circuit breaker range, it combines a 40 A rated current, Type D tripping characteristic and high short-circuit breaking capacity for demanding industrial and commercial electrical installations.
The S802C-D40 uses thermal and electromagnetic tripping mechanisms to provide dependable overcurrent protection. Its Type D characteristic accommodates comparatively high short-duration inrush currents, making it particularly suitable for circuits supplying motors, transformers and other equipment that can draw substantial current during energisation or start-up.
With a 25 kA short-circuit breaking capacity and two-pole configuration, the S802C-D40 provides robust protection where high prospective fault currents may occur. Its DIN-rail format enables straightforward integration into industrial control panels, distribution boards, machinery and switchgear assemblies.
Key Advantages
- High-performance 2-pole miniature circuit breaker for demanding electrical installations.

Reliable Protection for High-Inrush Loads
High-performance miniature circuit breakers such as the ABB S802C-D40 automatically disconnect a circuit when excessive current occurs. The thermal trip responds to sustained overload conditions, while the electromagnetic trip provides rapid interruption during short circuits, helping protect conductors, connected equipment and electrical installations.
The Type D characteristic is particularly useful where equipment produces substantial but legitimate current peaks during energisation or start-up. Combined with the S802C-D40's 25 kA fault interruption capability and two-pole configuration, this makes the breaker well suited to demanding industrial circuits supplying motors, transformers and other high-inrush equipment.
Typical Applications
- Industrial electrical distribution systems.
- Motor and machinery supply circuits.
- Transformer supply circuits.
- Circuits with high switch-on or starting currents.
- Industrial control panels and switchgear.
- Manufacturing and production equipment.
