The ABB S201M-B16NA is a 1-pole miniature circuit breaker from the S201M NA series, rated 16 A with a Trip Curve B characteristic. The 16 A rating means it carries 16 A continuously without tripping; the B curve (3–5× In magnetic trip) makes it the right choice for resistive or general-purpose loads where inrush is low — lighting circuits, small heaters, control transformers. On a 277 VAC line it interrupts faults up to 6 kA; on 60 VDC circuits it handles 10 kA.
Deployment context
The 1-pole width (roughly 18 mm per pole on the S201M series) keeps panel fill factor tight — a 16 A B-curve MCB for a lighting subfeed or a small pump motor branch circuit.
