ABB price list 2026

What the ABB price lists cover

ABB publishes its Indian prices by business rather than in one book, and two lists matter to most buyers of low-voltage equipment.

• Electrification products. The main list for ABB's low-voltage electrification range in India: the breakers, switching and control devices, and accessories that buildings and LT panels are built from. It is revised more than once a year, which is why this page holds several editions of it.
• Electrification builders and contractors. A separate list for the products ABB prices for building projects and electrical contractors. Read it on its own terms: a line in it is not automatically priced the same way as the matching line in the main list.

The editions table above lists every PDF on this page by line, newest first. Use the newest edition of each line for a current quotation, and the earlier ones only to see how a price has moved.

How to find a price in the ABB list

An ABB list is arranged by product family and then by rating, and every line carries the catalogue reference you order by. To find a price quickly:

1. 01Find the family first — MCBs, MCCBs, contactors and so on — from the contents pages at the front of the PDF.
2. 02Within it, narrow by the ratings that change the product: poles, rated current, breaking capacity, release type and, for contactors, the coil voltage.
3. 03Read the full catalogue reference for the line, and quote that reference, not the description, when you ask a seller for a rate.
4. 04Check the accessory pages separately. Shunt trips, auxiliary contacts, rotary handles and similar parts are priced as lines of their own, not inside the device price.

When you already have a reference, search the PDF for it rather than for the product name: names repeat across families, references do not. If the reference on an old drawing is missing from the current list, the item may have moved to a newer generation — our guide to switchgear brand cross-referencing explains what to check before you accept a successor or an equivalent.

From ABB list price to the rate you pay

The figure in the ABB list is where a quotation starts, not where it ends. Sellers in India quote ABB as a discount off the list, and the discount depends on their slab with the brand, the product family and the size of the order — so two quotations for the same reference can differ, and both can be honest.

• Check the price basis. The terms pages of each PDF state whether prices are list prices before tax or an MRP inclusive of taxes. That decides whether GST is added on top of the net rate.
• Compare net rates, not discounts. A deeper discount on a later dispatch can cost more than a shallower one on stock in hand. Compare the landed rate per line, with freight and payment terms included.
• Watch the edition. A quotation should say which ABB edition it is built on. One based on an edition that has since been replaced may be re-quoted at the new list when its validity runs out.

Our guide to reading a switchgear quotation works through list price, discount slab and net rate with an example, and our post on switchgear price increases explains how a new edition reaches the quotations on your desk.

How often ABB revises its price list

ABB does not revise on a fixed calendar. The editions on this page show the pattern for the electrification products list: more than one edition inside a single year, each with its own effective date printed in the PDF. A revision can move some families and leave others untouched, so compare the line you buy rather than assuming one percentage across the whole book.

A new edition replaces the old one for new orders from its effective date. Orders accepted at a firm price before then normally keep their rate; anything priced at the rate ruling on dispatch takes the new list. Agree which applies before you order a line with a long lead time.

Buying genuine ABB products

Well-known switchgear brands are the ones counterfeiters copy, because they sell in volume and are often installed by people who never see a genuine unit beside the one they are fitting. Buy through ABB's authorised channel, ask a new seller for the invoice trail back to it, and check what arrives against the four steps in our guide to verifying genuine switchgear.

A rate far below the list less a normal discount is a warning sign in itself. The list on this page is the reference any genuine quotation starts from. For comparisons across makes, the Schneider Electric and Siemens price lists are on this site too.
