The BAB3015C uses a Quicklag industrial thermal-magnetic mechanism that combines precise overload protection with fast short-circuit interruption, reducing the risk of equipment damage and downtime. Business impact includes improved line reliability and lower maintenance costs in high-demand equipment. In applications such as machine controls and panel boards, the 15 A rating and 10 kAIC interrupt capacity deliver predictable protection for 3-phase loads, while maintaining compatibility with standard bolt-on mounts and existing control panels. The three-pole design supports balanced protection of three-phase systems, and the non-interchangeable trip type ensures consistent protection characteristics across assemblies. Industry practitioners benefit from UL Listed and CSA Certified compliance, HACR ratings for air conditioning and appliance circuits, and a compact 3.8 in depth with 4.9 in height for space-constrained installations. This device also supports neutral switching, streamlining wiring in mixed-neutral feeder configurations and reducing potential fault paths.

FAQs

The BAB3015C is designed for bolt-on mounting to standard panels. Ensure a clean mounting surface, align with three-pole terminals, and tighten hardware to spec. Its bolt-on design streamlines replacement in existing panels, reduces wiring complexity, and supports straightforward field wiring with standardized terminal arrangements, helping maintain minimum clearance and compliance with enclosure requirements.
The BAB3015C features a 15 A current rating, 10 kAIC interrupt capacity, and a voltage rating of 120/240 V. It is a three-pole, non-interchangeable type with Quicklag thermal-magnetic operation. These ratings provide reliable overload and short-circuit protection for typical industrial 3-phase loads while maintaining consistent trip behavior across installations.
Yes. With a three-pole configuration, bolt-on mounting, and a 10 kAIC interrupt rating, the BAB3015C is well-suited for protecting 3-phase industrial machinery and panel boards. Its 15 A rating fits control circuits and motor control centers in light to medium-duty equipment, offering dependable protection without oversizing the protective device.
The BAB3015C is UL Listed and CSA Certified, and catalog notes indicate HACR rating. These certifications support compliance with North American electrical codes and standards for panel assemblies, HVAC-related circuits, and general electrical protection. They provide assurance to inspectors, integrators, and end-users that the device meets recognized safety and performance criteria.
Maintenance benefits derive from its robust thermal-magnetic design, which reduces nuisance trips and wear on downstream equipment. The 1-year warranty adds assurance, while UL CSA certifications simplify procurement and compliance. ROI is driven by reduced downtime, faster installations thanks to bolt-on mounting, and predictable protection that lowers repair costs from short-circuit events.
