Why Choose the ABB E201/45R Switch Disconnector?
The ABB E201/45R is a compact single-pole switch disconnector designed for manual switching and isolation of electrical loads in distribution boards, control panels and building electrical systems. Part of ABB's E200 modular switch range, it combines a high 45 A current rating with a space-saving single-module DIN rail format.
Rated at 230 V AC, the E201/45R features a 1NO contact configuration and a distinctive red operating lever for clear manual control. The device is suitable for commanding loads and is manufactured for professional modular electrical installations, with captive terminal screws and convenient removal from the DIN rail without requiring dismantling of the connected busbar.
With a rated conditional short-circuit current of 25 kA, rated short-time withstand current of 2 kA and power loss of only 0.9 W, the E201/45R provides dependable switching performance in a compact package. Up to three compatible S2C-H6R auxiliary contacts can also be added where additional signalling functions are required.

Reliable Single-Pole Switching and Electrical Isolation
The ABB E201/45R provides a straightforward means of manually switching and isolating a single conductor in an electrical installation. Its 45 A rating allows it to handle substantial loads while retaining the compact dimensions expected from modular DIN rail equipment, making it useful where panel space is limited.
Installation and maintenance are simplified by captive screws, a cage-terminal design and ABB's fast-removal arrangement, which allows the device to be removed without first dismantling the busbar. Compatible auxiliary contacts and an optional locking device further extend the E201/45R for installations requiring remote status signalling or protection against unauthorised switching.
Typical Applications
- Single-phase electrical distribution boards.
- Industrial control and automation panels.
- Manual isolation of electrical loads.
- Commercial building electrical systems.
- Machinery and equipment isolation circuits.
- Modular switchgear and distribution assemblies.
- Maintenance isolation of downstream electrical equipment.
