Why Choose the ABB F3C-AR230 D Auto-Reclosing Unit?
The ABB F3C-AR230 D, order code 2CSF203998R0034, is an automatic reclosing unit designed for compatible ABB residual current circuit breakers in the F200 range. As part of the ABB F200 / FH200 RCCB product group, it automatically operates the associated protection device following an unwanted trip, helping restore electrical service without requiring immediate manual intervention.
The F3C-AR230 D is the delayed version of ABB's F3C-AR automatic reclosing accessory and incorporates a 30-second waiting time before reclosing. This controlled delay makes it suitable for installations where temporary disturbances can cause an RCCB to operate and continuity of supply is important once the transient condition has passed.
Designed for a 110–240 V AC supply, the unit is suitable for ABB F200 RCCBs up to 100 A and F200 Type B RCCBs up to 63 A. Its compact modular construction enables straightforward integration alongside compatible RCCBs in DIN rail distribution assemblies and automated electrical protection systems.

Automatic Reclosing for Improved Supply Continuity
Automatic reclosing units are used to operate an associated protection device following an unexpected or unwanted trip. The ABB F3C-AR230 D provides this functionality for compatible F200 residual current circuit breakers, helping restore the electrical supply automatically where the installation and application permit automatic reclosing.
The 30-second waiting period distinguishes the F3C-AR230 D from the standard F3C-AR230 version. By delaying the reclosing operation, the unit allows time for temporary electrical disturbances to clear before attempting to restore the associated RCCB, making it useful for unattended and continuity-sensitive installations.
Typical Applications
- Commercial electrical distribution systems.
- Industrial electrical distribution boards.
- Unattended electrical installations requiring automatic restoration.
- Building services and facility electrical systems.
- Remote installations where manual RCCB resetting is inconvenient.
- Compatible ABB F200 RCCB installations requiring delayed automatic reclosing.
