Product details

What this part is and where it fits

The ABB S261-C16 is a DIN-rail miniature circuit breaker from the S260 series, rated for 16 A branch-circuit protection. It snaps onto standard 35 mm DIN rail inside a distribution board or control panel, occupying a single module width. The C characteristic curve means it trips at 5–10× rated current — suited for mixed resistive and moderate inductive loads where inrush is not severe.

Frequently asked questions

How do I get current pricing and availability for S261-C16?

Submit an RFQ through this listing. The part is sourced to order; availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time through independent distribution channels.

What is S261-C16's listed part number?

The order code is S261-C16, as printed on the nameplate and packaging.

What is S261-C16's listed weight?

The listed weight is 0.11 kg, which is typical for a single-module DIN-rail miniature circuit breaker.

Will S261-C16 drop into a panel that was specified around S273-K40A without rewiring?

No. The S273-K40A is a three-pole 40 A breaker; the S261-C16 is a single-pole 16 A unit. Pole count, rating, and busbar arrangement differ — the panel would require rewiring and a different busbar layout.
