Why Choose the ABB SD201/40 Switch Disconnector?
The ABB SD201/40 is a compact and reliable single-pole switch disconnector designed for manual switching and safe isolation of low-voltage electrical circuits. As part of the ABB SD200 switch disconnector series, it provides dependable load switching and disconnection for residential, commercial and industrial electrical distribution applications.
The SD201/40 combines switching and isolation functionality in a compact modular format. Its clearly operated red toggle can be sealed in both positions, helping provide controlled circuit isolation for maintenance while the device is designed for switching loads under normal operating conditions.
With a 40 A rated current, 253 V AC rated voltage and 25 kA conditional short-circuit current, the SD201/40 provides robust performance for single-phase electrical distribution. Its 17.5 mm single-module width and standard DIN-rail mounting make it straightforward to integrate into distribution boards and control panels.
Key Advantages
- Compact single-pole switch disconnector for manual switching and isolation.
- 40 A rated current for residential, commercial and industrial circuits.

Reliable Switching and Safe Circuit Isolation
Switch disconnectors such as the ABB SD201/40 provide both manual switching and an isolation function. When the device is in the open position, downstream electrical equipment can be isolated from the supply, supporting safer inspection and maintenance procedures when the installation is correctly designed and secured.
The SD200 series is designed in accordance with IEC/EN 60947-3 and must be used with appropriate upstream short-circuit and overload protection because the switch disconnector itself does not provide automatic overcurrent protection. Its compact DIN-rail format makes the SD201/40 particularly useful where dependable isolation is required without occupying excessive distribution-board space.
Typical Applications
- Single-phase circuit switching and isolation.
- Residential electrical distribution boards.
- Commercial building electrical systems.
- Industrial control and distribution panels.
- Isolation of downstream equipment for maintenance.
- Manual load switching in low-voltage installations.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the ABB SD201/40 used for?
The SD201/40 is a single-pole switch disconnector used for manual load switching and isolation of downstream electrical circuits in low-voltage distribution systems.
What is the rated current of the ABB SD201/40?
The ABB SD201/40 has a 40 A rated current and is designed for single-pole switching applications.
What voltage is the SD201/40 rated for?
The SD201/40 is rated for 253 V AC and can also be used at up to 60 V DC within its specified DC-21A utilisation category.
Does the ABB SD201/40 provide overcurrent protection?
No. The SD201/40 is a switch disconnector rather than a circuit breaker, so appropriate upstream protection against short circuits and overloads must be provided by devices such as fuses or circuit breakers.
Where is the ABB SD201/40 typically installed?
The SD201/40 is designed for DIN-rail installation in electrical distribution boards and control panels where compact manual switching and safe circuit isolation are required.
