FAQs
The BRC48L125RP is designed as a BR main lug loadcenter that accepts Type BR 1-inch circuit breakers. With four spaces and eight poles, it supports common 1-inch BR breakers, enabling straightforward expansion or retrofit. It is packaged for easy field wiring with #14-1/0 AWG Cu/Al, and the 6R enclosure size aligns with standard mounting footprints, reducing cabinet modifications and downtime.
Key specs include a 125 A amperage rating, 120/240 V single-phase operation, 8 circuits, and an eight-pole configuration. The enclosure material is metallic with an aluminum bus, and the unit has a 10 kAIC interrupt rating. Wiring accepts #14-1/0 AWG Cu/Al, and the box size is 6R, making it suitable for compact installations with BR-compatible protection.
Yes. The unit features a NEMA 3R enclosure with metallic construction, designed to withstand outdoor exposure when installed in protected or semi-protected areas. The 3R rating provides rain and corrosion resistance suitable for exterior equipment spaces, so facility managers can deploy it in exterior electrical rooms or protected outdoor locations without compromising safety.
This loadcenter carries UL 50 and UL 67 certifications, confirming compliance for enclosures and panelboard components. The NEMA 3R rating further demonstrates suitability for outdoor or semi-outdoor use. These certifications help ensure safer installation, consistent maintenance practices, and easier regulatory approvals during audits or facility upgrades.
By using BR-compatible breakers and a main-lug configuration, the BRC48L125RP reduces spare-part inventories and accelerates upgrades, translating to lower downtime during maintenance. Its durable aluminum bus, 10 kAIC rating, and weather-rated enclosure contribute to longer service life and fewer field repairs, delivering predictable lifecycle costs and improved total cost of ownership for facilities teams.
