🔧 Introduction

In industrial power distribution systems, reliability, safety, and performance are not optional—they’re essential. One component that plays a crucial role in achieving these standards is the Miniature Circuit Breaker (MCB). Among the top choices for electrical professionals is the ABB S204-C80, a 4-pole, 80A breaker built to handle the demands of complex industrial panels.

At Shansen Enterprises, we’ve supplied thousands of ABB circuit breakers to OEMs, panel builders, and MEP consultants—and the S204-C80 remains a customer favorite.


⚙️ Technical Superiority of ABB S204-C80

Let’s break down the specifications that make this MCB a top-tier choice:

  • Rated Current: 80A
  • Poles: 4 Pole (4P)
  • Tripping Curve: C Curve (perfect for standard inductive loads with moderate inrush currents)
  • Rated Voltage: 400V AC (IEC 60898-1 & IEC 60947-2)
  • Short Circuit Capacity: 6kA (AC & DC)
  • Rated Conditional Short-Circuit Current (Inc): Up to 20kA
  • Frequency: 50/60 Hz
  • Impulse Withstand Voltage: 6.2kV (at sea level)
  • Ingress Protection: IP20 (IP40 when installed in enclosure)

These features ensure that the S204-C80 is well-equipped to handle high load demands, resist electrical faults, and maintain service continuity in mission-critical environments.


🏭 Perfect Fit for Industrial Applications

The S204-C80 is engineered specifically for industrial control panels where safety, uptime, and efficiency are key:

  • Switchgear Assemblies
  • Control Panels for Automation
  • Motor Control Centers (MCCs)
  • Power Distribution Boards in Factories
  • HVAC Systems
  • Renewable Energy Setups

Its C-curve tripping characteristic makes it ideal for applications that involve equipment with medium-level inrush currents like motors, transformers, and lighting circuits.


💡 Why Professionals Prefer the S204-C80

✅ Reliability from ABB

Backed by ABB’s rigorous R&D and quality testing, the S204-C80 offers consistent performance under high stress.

✅ Compact Design

Its modular 4-pole design fits easily into standard DIN rail panels, optimizing panel space.

✅ Safety & Durability

With IP20/IP40 protection, overvoltage category III rating, and a mechanical endurance of 20,000 operations, it’s built for tough environments.

✅ Verified Authenticity with Shansen Enterprises

As an Authorized ABB Channel Partner, Shansen Enterprises ensures that customers receive genuine, factory-sealed units, complete with technical support and warranty assurance.


🧰 Installation & Wiring Flexibility

The breaker supports various connection types, including:

  • Busbar up to 16 mm²
  • Flexible conductors (4–35 mm²)
  • Rigid/Stranded conductors (2.5–50 mm²)
  • Failsafe bi-directional terminals
  • Screw terminals with Pozidriv 2 compatibility

This makes wiring and setup extremely efficient and error-resistant for field engineers and electricians.


📦 Genuine Packaging and Global Standards

The product is manufactured by ABB Stotz-Kontakt GmbH, Germany, and repackaged by ABB India. It meets IEC/EN 60898-1 and IEC 60947-2 international standards, making it compliant for global installations.
