ABB MCB 32A Single Pole SH201-C32

ABB SH201-C32 1-Pole 32A 6kA Type C MCB

The ABB SH201-C32 is a 1-pole, 32A Type C miniature circuit breaker with 6kA breaking capacity from the ABB Compact Home SH200 series. Combining a delayed thermal tripping mechanism for overload protection with an electromechanical mechanism for short circuit protection, it is current limiting and designed specifically for residential distribution board applications, making it a cost-effective choice for villa and apartment installations across the UAE.

Key Features

• 1-pole 32A Type C MCB for single-phase circuit protection in residential distribution boards
• 6kA breaking capacity suitable for standard UAE residential fault levels
• Type C tripping characteristic suitable for resistive and lightly inductive household loads
• Compact 17.5 mm width (1 modular spacing) for space-efficient DIN rail installation
• Genuine ABB SH200 series quality — consistent performance and reliability

Technical Specifications

Applications

• Single-phase lighting and power circuit protection in residential distribution boards
• Villa and apartment consumer unit circuit protection across the UAE
• Cost-effective MCB replacement for residential installations
• General household circuit protection where compact, reliable overcurrent protection is needed

FAQ

• What's the difference between an MCB and an MCCB?
  An MCB (miniature circuit breaker) is typically rated up to 100A with a fixed, non-adjustable trip and lower breaking capacity, used for final circuits. An MCCB (moulded case circuit breaker) is built for higher currents and fault levels, and is used for main incomers, sub-mains, and feeder protection where an MCB's rating or breaking capacity would be insufficient.
• When do I need an MCCB instead of an MCB?
  Use an MCCB where the prospective fault current or load current exceeds what an MCB is rated to handle safely — typically at the main incomer or major sub-main level of a commercial or industrial distribution board.
• Does this MCCB have an adjustable trip setting?
  Check the specific trip unit type in the Technical Specifications table above — thermal-magnetic MCCBs may have a fixed or adjustable trip range depending on the model; an electronic trip unit typically offers configurable protection curves.
• Can I install this myself?
  No. MCCBs are installed in distribution boards and panels by a licensed electrician, in line with UAE wiring regulations.
