Why Choose the ABB S804C-C16 High Performance MCB?
The ABB S804C-C16 is a high-performance 4-pole miniature circuit breaker (MCB) designed to provide reliable overload and short-circuit protection in demanding electrical distribution systems. As part of the ABB S800C high-performance circuit breaker series, it combines high fault-current interruption capability with a compact modular design for commercial and industrial installations.
This current-limiting circuit breaker features a Type C tripping characteristic and a rated current of 16 A. Its thermal tripping mechanism provides protection against sustained overloads, while the electromechanical trip mechanism responds rapidly to short-circuit faults. The C characteristic makes it suitable for general-purpose circuits and loads with moderate starting or inrush currents.
With a maximum ultimate short-circuit breaking capacity of 25 kA at 240/415 V AC, the S804C-C16 is designed for installations where substantial prospective fault currents may occur. Its four-pole configuration provides simultaneous switching and protection across four conductors, making it suitable for three-phase distribution systems where the neutral conductor also requires switching.
