The 125 A main lug loadcenter delivers robust electrical distribution for commercial spaces with a compact footprint. Feature → Business Impact → Application: high current capacity supports moderate to larger circuits without densely packed panels, reducing the need for upstream upgrades and enabling faster commissioning on new builds or renovations. This translates to lower upfront labors costs and improved project timelines in offices, retail, or light industrial facilities. BR type 1-inch breakers are compatible with Eaton’s BR family, ensuring a reliable, readily available parts ecosystem and simplifying procurement. Application in a busy campus or multi-tenant building reduces stocking complexity and improves maintenance response times. The aluminum bus offers corrosion resistance and lighter weight than copper, decreasing install fatigue and enabling easier field routing during panel wiring. This is ideal for installations in humid or challenging environments where durability matters. 16 circuits across 8 spaces balance capacity and enclosure size, making it suitable for mid-sized service entrances and subpanels. The NEMA 1 metallic enclosure provides indoors protection and a clean, professional finish, while the flush mounting supports a seamless wall profile. The included cover reduces misalignment, safeguarding terminals and ensuring consistent assembly. With 10 kAIC interrupt rating, the panel handles fault conditions with confidence, supporting NEC compliance and system safety. The warranty protection of 10 years minimizes lifecycle risk and lowers total cost of ownership, delivering long-term value for maintenance teams. In practice, this loadcenter supports quick upgrades, easier troubleshooting, and predictable performance for electricians and facility managers.
