1P+N Overcurrent Switch – Reliable Protection for Your Installation

This ABB S201M-C16NA series overcurrent switch is a key element of every safe electrical installation. It provides effective protection against overloads and short circuits in circuits with a rated current of 16A. The 1P+N (single-pole with neutral conductor) design makes it ideal for protecting individual circuits in residential, commercial, and industrial buildings.

Characteristics and Application

The switch is characterized by a C characteristic, which means it reacts with a delay to short-term current surges. This makes it perfect for circuits with receivers generating high inrush currents, such as motors or transformers. The rated breaking capacity of up to 10kA at 230V and 15kA at 400V guarantees quick and safe disconnection in the event of a failure. This is particularly important in places where high reliability and minimization of damage risk are required.

Construction and Mounting

The switch has a width of 2 modules, which facilitates its installation in standard distribution boards. The solid construction and high-quality materials ensure long-lasting and trouble-free operation. The IP20 degree of protection prevents accidental contact, but does not provide protection against the effects of weather conditions – the device is intended for use in dry rooms. The possibility of mounting additional auxiliary contacts allows for expanding the functionality of the switch and integration with monitoring or control systems. The cross-section of the conductors connected to the switch can range from 0.75 mm² to 25 mm² (multi-strand) and from 0.75 mm² to 35 mm² (solid core), providing great flexibility when choosing conductors.
