ABB 1SCD014277R1 CGSE DT 1200A 3P 240V - UL1008 Certified
Part Number: 1SCD014277R1
Quick Summary
The ABB CGSE DT 1200A is a high-current, three-pole contactor designed for reliable power control in 240V AC systems. For engineers upgrading heavy machinery, the primary challenge is maintaining uptime while meeting safety and compliance requirements across changing loads. This model is UL 1008 listed and cULus certified, supports CMRT for conflict-minerals reporting, and aligns with ETIM 8 EC000066 for power contactors, with WEEE Category 4 classification ensuring end-of-life responsibility. The solid neutral bar design simplifies neutral wiring, and its delayed transition feature helps prevent inrush spikes during motor start-up. Together with its 1200 A rating, 3P configuration, and standard 220–240 V operation, it delivers dependable protection with installation and maintenance advantages.

FAQs
Install the 3P 240V CGSE DT device in a footprint that supports high-current motor control, ensuring the solid neutral bar is properly seated and the delayed transition wiring is followed. Use standard 50/60 Hz wiring practices, verify conductor sizing for 1200 A loads, and integrate with existing control circuits using appropriate interlocks and overload protection. Always consult ABB installation manuals and UL 1008 guidelines during panel revisions.
Delayed transition reduces inrush current and electrical stress during motor start-up, mitigating voltage dips and contact wear. This leads to longer motor life, fewer nuisance trips, and improved panel reliability, especially in applications with large motors or frequent start/stop cycles such as conveyors and pumps.
Yes. The device carries UL 1008 listing and cULus certification, along with CMRT and WEEE classifications. This combination supports compliance in North American facilities and regulated industries, simplifying approvals for electrical installations and panel builds that require recognized safety and environmental certifications.
The solid neutral bar streamlines neutral connections, reducing junctions and potential fault points. Ensure correct terminal torque, use appropriately rated conductors for 1200 A service, and route neutrals away from high-current cables to minimize interference. Clear labeling and proper routing improve serviceability and reduce maintenance time.
Although the initial cost may be higher than smaller units, the 1200 A CGSE DT reduces panel footprint, wiring complexity, and component count. This translates to lower assembly time, reduced spare parts inventory, and easier maintenance, delivering a favorable total cost of ownership in high-current, high-demand installations.
