Ring or Spade Lug Terminals
The BAB2045HT combines a two-pole design with a 45 A rating and a 10 kAIC interrupt capacity to deliver dependable overcurrent protection for medium-demand circuits, which translates to minimized downtime and reduced damage to costly equipment in control panels. The thermal magnetic trip mechanism provides selective protection, enabling faster response to overloads while avoiding nuisance trips on normal startup currents, a common pain point in motor-driven applications. Bolt-on mounting lets technicians install or retrofit the breaker quickly, improving serviceability and reducing labor costs during panel updates or expansions. Ring or spade lug terminals offer flexible wiring options, enabling cleaner terminations and easier field wiring changes without special adapters or rework. HACR-rated performance and formal UL Listed/CSA Certified compliance give engineers confidence for HVAC and building automation deployments, supporting regulatory adherence and safer operation. The unit’s compact dimensions and light weight conserve panel space in crowded panels, supporting leaner electrical layouts and easier heat management. A solid 1-year warranty from Eaton provides maintenance peace of mind and a clear ROI for asset-intensive facilities.
