Eaton BRP42LC225 Main Lug Loadcenter - UL 67
Part Number: BRP42LC225
Quick Summary
The Eaton BRP42LC225 main lug loadcenter is a compact solution for distributing power in commercial panels and light industrial controls. When space is limited or maintenance windows are tight, a main lug configuration simplifies wiring and reduces component count, speeding commissioning and service. This unit is UL listed with UL 67 and UL 50, supports NEMA 1 metallic enclosures, and is designed for surface or flush mounting where indoor protection is required. With 225 A capacity, 84 circuits, and copper bus, it combines robustness with straightforward installation. For integration into existing BR systems, its compatibility with #6-1/0 AWG Cu/Al conductors and 120/240V single-phase power makes it a practical, scalable choice for evolving electrical infrastructure.

FAQs
BRP42LC225 is a main lug only loadcenter designed for BR-series systems. It uses main lugs rather than a built-in main breaker, and it accommodates BR branch devices. This simplifies wiring when the main supply is provided upstream and keeps the enclosure compact for controlled distribution in BR-based installations.
Key specs include a 225 A amperage rating, 84 circuits with 42 spaces, 120/240 V single-phase, copper bus, and a 10 kAIC interrupt rating. It uses #6-1/0 AWG Cu/Al conductors and features a NEMA 1 metallic enclosure with surface or flush mounting for indoor use.
Yes. Its 225 A capacity, 84 circuit count, copper bus, and robust enclosure make it well-suited for automation panels, control rooms, and equipment feeds in manufacturing environments where reliable, scalable power distribution is essential.
The unit is UL listed with UL 67 and UL 50 ratings, alongside NEMA 1 enclosure classification. These certifications indicate compliance with enclosure integrity, fire and electrical safety, and suitability for indoor industrial environments, which helps with regulatory acceptance and risk management.
A 10-year warranty supports longer asset life and lower maintenance costs, while its simple main lug design reduces downtime during wiring changes. The combination of compact footprint, high circuit capacity, and durable enclosure translates to lower lifecycle costs in automation and electrical infrastructure projects.
