Why Choose the ABB EPX-XT5S-TM4004 400A 4-Pole 50kA MCCB with TMA Protection?

The ABB EPX-XT5S-TM4004 is a 400 A, four-pole moulded case circuit breaker (MCCB) designed for low-voltage electrical distribution applications requiring reliable overload and short-circuit protection. Part of the ABB Tmax XT5S circuit breaker family and the Protecta Power Devices range, this MCCB combines a substantial current rating with a 50 kA breaking capacity and thermal-magnetic protection.

Featuring a TMA thermal-magnetic trip unit, the EPX-XT5S-TM4004 provides protection against sustained overload conditions and short-circuit faults. Its thermal protection element responds to excessive current over time, while the magnetic element provides rapid tripping during high fault current conditions. This combination makes the device suitable for protecting distribution circuits, electrical conductors and connected equipment in appropriately designed installations.

The four-pole configuration makes the EPX-XT5S-TM4004 suitable for three-phase distribution arrangements requiring a fourth switched pole. Its 400 A rated current and XT5S frame construction support integration into compatible ABB Protecta Power distribution assemblies, providing a practical solution for commercial and industrial electrical infrastructure.

Key Advantages

  • 400 A rated current for substantial low-voltage distribution loads.
  • Four-pole construction supports applications requiring switching of three phases and a fourth conductor.
  • 50 kA breaking capacity for appropriately designed distribution systems with significant prospective fault currents.
  • TMA thermal-magnetic protection provides overload and short-circuit protection.
  • ABB Tmax XT5S platform offers established moulded case circuit breaker technology.
  • Protecta Power compatibility supports integration into designated ABB electrical distribution assemblies.
  • Mechanical switching capability allows manual opening, closing and resetting of the circuit breaker.
  • Four-pole circuit isolation supports suitable three-phase distribution arrangements.
  • Suitable for commercial, industrial and building services electrical installations.

Thermal-Magnetic Circuit Protection for Three-Phase Distribution

The ABB EPX-XT5S-TM4004 provides circuit protection for low-voltage distribution systems operating at currents up to its specified 400 A rating. The TMA trip unit combines thermal protection against prolonged overloads with magnetic protection against short-circuit faults. These complementary functions help limit the effects of overcurrent conditions on cables, distribution equipment and connected electrical loads.

Its four-pole configuration is particularly relevant where the electrical design requires a fourth switched conductor alongside the three phases. The 50 kA breaking capacity provides a significant short-circuit protection capability, although the applicable rating must be confirmed at the installation voltage. Designers and installers should also verify conductor sizing, protective coordination, neutral-pole requirements, terminal arrangements and compatibility with the intended ABB Protecta Power assembly.

Typical Applications

  • ABB Protecta Power electrical distribution assemblies.
  • Commercial and industrial low-voltage distribution boards.
  • Three-phase electrical systems requiring four-pole switching.
  • Main and sub-main distribution circuit protection.
  • Industrial manufacturing facilities and production environments.
  • Commercial buildings, warehouses and logistics centres.
  • Electrical plant rooms and building services installations.
  • Distribution feeders supplying industrial machinery and equipment.
  • Panel building projects requiring 400 A four-pole MCCB protection.
  • Electrical distribution installations requiring a 50 kA thermal-magnetic MCCB.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the ABB EPX-XT5S-TM4004 used for?

The ABB EPX-XT5S-TM4004 is a 400 A four-pole moulded case circuit breaker designed to provide overload and short-circuit protection in compatible ABB Protecta Power low-voltage electrical distribution assemblies.

What is the current rating and breaking capacity of the EPX-XT5S-TM4004?

The EPX-XT5S-TM4004 has a 400 A rated current and a specified 50 kA breaking capacity. The applicable short-circuit rating should be verified against the operating voltage and prospective fault current of the installation.

What does TMA mean on this ABB MCCB?

TMA identifies the thermal-magnetic trip unit configuration. Thermal protection responds to sustained overload currents, while magnetic protection responds to short-circuit faults. The precise trip settings and adjustment ranges should be confirmed from the applicable ABB technical documentation.

Why does the EPX-XT5S-TM4004 have four poles?

The four-pole configuration allows the circuit breaker to switch four conductors together, making it suitable for appropriately designed three-phase distribution systems requiring a fourth switched pole. The installation design must establish whether the fourth pole is suitable for the intended neutral arrangement.

What is the difference between the EPX-XT5S-TM4004 and EPX-XT5S-TM4003?

Both are 400 A ABB XT5S thermal-magnetic MCCBs with a specified 50 kA breaking capacity. The EPX-XT5S-TM4004 has four poles, while the EPX-XT5S-TM4003 has three poles. The correct version depends on the number of conductors that must be switched and the requirements of the electrical distribution system.
