Why Choose the ABB E2S1600 PR121/P-LSI 1600A Air Circuit Breaker?

The ABB E2S1600 PR121/P-LSI, order code 1SDA055985R1, is a high-performance three-pole fixed air circuit breaker (ACB) designed for switching and protection in demanding low-voltage electrical distribution systems. Part of the established ABB SACE Emax series, this E2S circuit breaker combines a rated current of 1600 A with the PR121/P electronic overcurrent release for dependable protection in industrial, commercial and infrastructure power networks.

This configuration is supplied as a fixed three-pole circuit breaker with horizontal rear flat terminals, providing a practical connection arrangement for integration into low-voltage switchboards. The fitted PR121/P-LSI R1600 electronic overcurrent release provides long-time, short-time and instantaneous protection functions, helping protect electrical systems against sustained overloads and short-circuit faults while supporting selective protection coordination.

The E2S performance level provides an ultimate and service short-circuit breaking capacity of 85 kA at 415 V AC and 65 kA at 690 V AC, together with a short-time withstand current of 65 kA for 1 s. Four auxiliary contacts and open/closed circuit-breaker position indication support status signalling, monitoring and integration into high-current low-voltage switchboards.

Advanced Protection for Low-Voltage Power Distribution

Air circuit breakers such as the ABB SACE Emax E2S1600 provide switching, isolation and protection for high-current low-voltage distribution circuits. The E2S performance class offers strong short-circuit interruption capability, making this breaker suitable for main distribution boards, incomers, feeders and other critical positions where high prospective fault currents may be present.

The PR121/P electronic overcurrent release provides LSI protection for demanding electrical networks. Long-time protection responds to sustained overload conditions, short-time protection supports selective coordination during fault events, and instantaneous protection rapidly interrupts severe short-circuit currents to help safeguard conductors, switchgear and connected electrical equipment.

Typical Applications

  • Low-voltage main distribution switchboards.
  • Industrial power distribution systems.
  • Main incomer and high-current feeder protection.
  • Manufacturing and process plants.
  • Commercial buildings and infrastructure installations.
  • Motor control centres and power distribution assemblies.
  • Transformer secondary and generator distribution circuits.
  • High fault-level low-voltage switchgear systems.
