Why Choose the ABB 1SDA056178R1 E3S1250 Air Circuit Breaker?

The ABB 1SDA056178R1 is a high-performance SACE Emax E3S air circuit breaker (ACB) designed for protection and switching in low-voltage electrical distribution systems. As part of the ABB New Emax E3 series, this three-pole fixed circuit breaker combines a 1250 A rated current with the PR121/P-LSIG electronic overcurrent release for dependable protection of industrial and commercial power installations.

The E3S1250 is equipped with ABB's PR121/P-LSIG electronic trip unit, providing long-time, short-time, instantaneous and ground-fault protection. This comprehensive LSIG protection configuration helps protect electrical installations against overloads, short circuits and earth faults while supporting selective coordination within complex low-voltage distribution networks.

With a rated current of 1250 A, a three-pole fixed configuration and horizontal rear terminals, the 1SDA056178R1 is designed for installation within switchboards and power distribution assemblies. The E3S performance level provides a rated ultimate short-circuit breaking capacity of 75 kA at 415 V AC, making the breaker suitable for demanding installations with high prospective fault currents.
