Product FAQs
7 answers
What does the C trip curve mean for the ABB S201-C6?
The C-curve trip characteristic is designed for circuits with moderate inrush currents. It typically trips between 5 and 10 times the rated current, making it ideal for lighting circuits, small motors, and general control panel wiring.
Is the ABB S201-C6 rated as a UL 489 branch circuit breaker?
No, the S201-C6 is recognized as a UL 1077 supplementary protector. It is designed to provide additional overcurrent protection within appliances or electrical equipment where branch circuit protection is already provided upstream.
Can I add auxiliary contacts or shunt trips to the S201-C6?
Yes, the ABB S200 series is modular and supports a wide range of field-installable accessories. You can mount auxiliary contacts, signal contacts, shunt trips, and undervoltage releases directly to the breaker.
How is the ABB S201-C6 mounted inside a control panel?
This miniature circuit breaker snaps directly onto a standard 35mm DIN rail, allowing for quick and space-saving installation in commercial enclosures and automation panels.
What is the manufacturer catalog number and global SKU for this 6A breaker?
The catalog number is S201-C6, and the ABB global SKU or reference number is 2CDS251001R0064.
Are the terminals on the S201-C6 finger-safe?
Yes, it features finger-safe, bi-directional cylinder-lift screw terminals with an IP20 protection rating to prevent accidental contact with live wires during maintenance.
Can this breaker be used in DC control circuits?
Yes, the S201-C6 is rated for use in DC applications up to 60VDC, providing a 10kA interrupting capacity for direct current control panels and automation systems.
