It belongs to the Miniature Circuit Breakers (MCB) category and snaps onto standard DIN rail in a distribution board or panel. The 6 kA breaking capacity means it can safely interrupt fault currents up to 6 kA at rated voltage — adequate for most commercial and light industrial sub-distribution boards where the prospective short-circuit current stays under that threshold. ## Curve C trip and what it means on the line Curve C trips between 5× and 10× rated current (500–1000 A for this 100 A breaker). That magnetic-trip band suits mixed loads with moderate inrush — think groups of small motors, contactor coils, or lighting circuits where the start-up surge is higher than a resistive heater but not as sharp as a transformer primary. The 3-pole construction covers three-phase circuits. In a panel feeding a motor control centre or a small HVAC unit, the S203-C100 clears phase-to-phase and phase-to-neutral faults without relying on an upstream device for the first fault level. ## Lifecycle and sourcing reality Sourced to order against your BOM quantity.","metaTitle":"2CDS253001R0824 S203-C100 6kA 100A ABB 2CDS253001R0824","metaDescription":"ABB System Pro M Compact S200 MCB, 3P, 100A Curve C, 6kA breaking capacity.
