Overview of ABB Molded Case Circuit Breakers
So far, ABB has three series of molded case circuit breakers, including Formula, Tmax T and Tmax XT. In order to make it more convenient for everyone to select the circuit breaker, we will mainly introduce the related models, characteristics, nameplate parameters and other information of each series of ABB molded case circuit breakers.
ABB molded case circuit breaker (Formula series)

This series is mainly composed of three frames A1, A2 and A3, and its current is 125A, 250A and 630A respectively. And the three frames are all fixed, and the standard configuration is the front terminal block. ABB Molded Case Circuit Breaker Formula series features: simple configuration, easy to choose, rich accessories and complete specifications. It integrates all the features of simplicity, reliability and quality, double insulation isolation function, and the power supply can adopt the way of upper or lower inlet. It can be said to belong to a more practical type of molded case circuit breaker.

ABB molded case circuit breaker (Tmax XT series)

The new Tmax XT is mainly divided into four models, which are as follows:
◆Compact XT1-frame current reaches 160A;
◆High-performance XT2-frame current reaches 160A;
◆Reliable XT3-frame current reaches 250A;
◆Enhanced XT4-frame current reaches 250A.
The Tmax XT frame current can reach up to 250A, which is suitable for installation and use in power distribution, electric energy metering, motor protection, generator protection, neutral line protection or any other occasions. All models (even the smallest ones) are equipped with electromagnetic or electronic protective trips, which can be interchanged. ABB molded case circuit breaker Tmax XT series features: using a new generation of electronic trip technology, compact structure and strong performance, installation, operation and maintenance are very simple, complete accessories can be selected.
