Why Choose the Lovato ACB4P160D12 Power Distribution Block?
The Lovato ACB4P160D12 is a high-capacity four-pole power distribution block designed to provide an organised central point for distributing electrical power to multiple circuits within industrial switchboards, control panels and machinery. Part of the Lovato ACB power distribution block series, it combines substantial current capacity with multiple conductor connections in a compact panel-mounted format.
Rated for a conventional free-air thermal current of 160 A at temperatures up to 40 °C, the ACB4P160D12 features 12 terminals and a rated insulation voltage of 500 V. It also provides a rated peak withstand current of 38 kA and a rated short-time withstand current of 8.2 kA for 1 s, supporting dependable operation in demanding low-voltage power distribution systems.
The block accommodates conductor sections from 2.5 to 50 mm², depending on the connection point, and provides flexible installation by either screw fixing or mounting on a standard 35 mm DIN rail. Its front-facing terminals provide IP20 protection, helping deliver a practical and professional solution for industrial panel building.
