Eaton Specification Sheet - CB1233B1204806
The CB1233B1204806 delivers a 1200A amperage rating and 480V system voltage, enabling single-device protection for large feeders and reducing the need for paralleling switches. This translates to faster installation and a smaller panel footprint in high-current environments. Bottom feed, three-pole design and three-wire configuration simplify wiring and fault clearance, improving serviceability and reducing mis-wiring risk in cramped panels. The fusible protection and charge-before-close mechanism promote safer operation and controlled switching sequences, helping contain faults and minimize arc energy in critical panels. Optional features such as Ground Fault Relay, Blown Fuse Detection, Single Phase Protection, Kirk Provisions, and Auxiliary Contacts provide modular protection that supports code compliance and future expansion without replacing the base unit. UL Listed certification and strong NEMA compatibility (1, 3R, 4, 12) underpin reliability across varying indoor and outdoor environments. Dimensions and weight—16 in length, 32 in height, 24 in width, and 200 lb—plus a handle suitable for 6'6" reach, ease field installation and operator accessibility in demanding facilities.
