50 A at 10 kAIC rating delivers robust feeder protection for motor loads and lighting circuits in industrial feeders. The thermal-magnetic mechanism responds to overloads and short circuits, minimizing nuisance trips while maintaining reliability in harsh environments. In 240 V distribution panels, the BAB2050H helps sustain uptime across machines and conveyors, with a two-pole footprint that fits compact panel spaces. Quicklag industrial technology provides fast trip action under overloads, reducing equipment damage and downtime. The non-interchangeable trip curve ensures predictable protection, simplifying preventive maintenance planning and spare‑part inventories. Bolt-on mounting simplifies installation, improving field labor efficiency during upgrades or expansion. The device’s compact footprint (3 in L × 3.5 in H × 2 in W) saves panel depth and enables cleaner bus routing in crowded switchgear. Certifications and compliance are built in, with UL Listed, CSA Certified, HACR rating, and a 1-year warranty to support cost-effective maintenance and reliable operation in industrial settings.
