Why Choose the ABB M304P-D1.6 Magnetic Circuit Breaker?
The ABB M304P-D1.6 is a high-performance four-pole magnetic-only miniature circuit breaker designed to provide reliable short-circuit protection in industrial electrical installations. Part of the ABB M300P / System pro M compact range, it combines a rated current of 1.6 A with a D tripping characteristic and high short-circuit performance for demanding machinery, control and distribution applications.
Unlike conventional thermal-magnetic miniature circuit breakers, the M304P-D1.6 uses magnetic-only tripping, making it particularly suitable for circuits where dedicated short-circuit protection is required and overload protection is provided separately. Its four-pole configuration provides simultaneous protection across all four poles, while the D characteristic is suited to circuits subject to transient or inrush currents.
With a rated current of 1.6 A, four protected poles and a 25 kA short-circuit breaking capacity, the M304P-D1.6 provides robust protection in a compact modular format. Its DIN-rail mounting and screw-terminal connections enable straightforward integration into industrial electrical panels, machinery and distribution equipment.

Reliable Magnetic Protection for Industrial Circuits
Magnetic-only circuit breakers such as the ABB M304P-D1.6 are designed to respond rapidly to short-circuit fault currents without incorporating the conventional thermal overload element found in thermal-magnetic MCBs. This makes them particularly useful where overload protection is provided separately and dedicated magnetic short-circuit protection is required.
The ABB M300P range is designed for industrial electrical installations requiring robust circuit protection. The M304P-D1.6 combines a 1.6 A rated current with four protected poles, a D magnetic characteristic and compact modular construction, making it suitable for machinery, automation, control-panel and industrial distribution applications.
Typical Applications
- Industrial four-pole electrical circuits.
- Machinery and automation control panels.
- Low-current industrial control circuits.
- Circuits with separately coordinated overload protection.
- Circuits subject to transient or inrush currents.
- OEM machinery and industrial electrical installations.
