Ideal for motor and transformer applications, the ABB S203UP-K2 provides precise branch circuit protection. This 3-pole, 2A miniature circuit breaker utilizes a K-curve trip mechanism to safely manage high inrush currents without nuisance tripping. It fastens quickly into standard DIN rail enclosures and control panels. This model is also designed to replace the legacy SU203M-K2. Delivering a 10kA interrupting rating at 480Y/277VAC, this current-limiting breaker includes finger-safe terminals.
