سابعا. ملخص

ABB Molded Case Circuit Breaker AC250-4P-150A (complete model A2C 250 TMF 150-1500 4p F F) is a cost-effective and reliable general-purpose protection electrical device, suitable for most 400V low-voltage distribution systems. Its core advantages are:

1. 4-Pole Full Protection: Suitable for modern building TN-S distribution system, neutral line can also get effective protection
2. 25kA Breaking Capacity: Meets the short-circuit protection requirements of general industrial and commercial buildings
3. TMF Thermal-Magnetic Trip: No external protection device required, easy installation and maintenance
4. Modular Design: Supports expansion of various accessories to adapt to different application scenarios

Selection should be comprehensively considered according to load type, short-circuit current size and system earthing configuration to ensure the circuit breaker matches the system and provides the best protection effect.
