ABB S282 K6A Circuit Breaker

The ABB S282-K6A is a compact two-pole miniature circuit breaker rated 6 A for 480/277 V AC service with a Type K (K-curve) trip profile, intended for DIN rail installation in electrical panels. This 2P device protects individual circuits in commercial or light-industrial distribution, offering precise short-circuit and overload protection for equipment such as lighting runs, control circuits, and motor starters operating from a 277/480 V system. The S282 family from ABB is designed for straightforward drop-in integration with other ABB protective devices in a panel, and the specific model S282-K6A is listed as a UL489 MCB (2P) with a 6 A rating at 480/277 VAC, aligning with common code and safety requirements for protective devices in 480Y/277 VAC networks. Its compact form factor and DIN rail mounting simplify panel layout and replacement in existing ABB installations, helping ensure coordinated protection without occupying excessive enclosure space. With a 6 A rating for moderate loads and a K-curve trip profile that manages inrush currents, it supports reliable protection for lighting, control circuits, and small motor-related applications in ABB-driven panels.
