 Molded Case Circuit Breakers
Overview
Designed to provide branch and feeder
circuit protection in industrial control
panels, this line of Molded Case Circuit
Breakers supplies protection against
overload in conductors and short circuit
in connected equipment such as motors.
They are UL listed for installation in UL
508 control panels. Their small size, in
relation to standard circuit breakers or
other comparable devices, saves panel
space. Four frame sizes and all standard
accessories are available.

• CSA 22.2 No.5, File: 43556
Features
• UL489 listed performance for branch
circuit overcurrent protection and
disconnecting means
• Patented contact conductor designs
featuring high-speed “blow-open”
action, providing superior performance
when high level fault currents produce
extra-ordinary electromechanical forces
• Advanced arc extinguishing technology
• Toggle handle provides three positions
(on/off/tripped) along with visual
indicators
