Eaton 6DSL-C2000 Cable Limiter - 600V, 200 kAIC
Part Number: 6DSL-C2000
Quick Summary
The Eaton 6DSL-C2000 cable limiter is a high-capacity current-limiting fuse for protecting LV wiring in switchgear and panel installations. Engineers often face nuisance trips, arc-flash risk, and costly downtime when protection is poorly coordinated. This device complies with IEEE Std. C37.41, supporting reliable protection of motor feeders and critical loads. Designed for easy installation in low-voltage power distribution, it delivers robust cable limiter protection while enabling efficient coordination with upstream devices, reducing total cost of ownership. With a 2000 A rating and 200 kAIC interrupt capability at 600 V, it supports demanding industrial environments.
