FAQs
For panel integration, select the bottom-feed, three-pole configuration to align with your bus arrangement. Use the fusible protection option and verify the device is housed in a compatible NEMA-rated enclosure to meet environmental requirements. Ensure control voltage is wired to 120 V and respect the 208 V system voltage for proper operation.
The capacitor trip device provides a fast, controlled trip sequence that coordinates with the main circuit protection. This minimizes nuisance trips while preserving selectivity for fault conditions, improving motor and load protection and reducing unnecessary downtime.
Yes. UL Listed with NEMA ratings 1, 3R, 4, and 12, the switch is designed for enclosure protection in a range of environments, including damp or industrial settings. Optional accessories further enhance diagnostic capabilities in challenging conditions.
Optional Ground Fault Relay, Blown Fuse Detection, and Auxiliary Contacts can be added to tailor protection to specific risk profiles. These features improve fault diagnosis, enable better interface with existing controls, and support safer, more proactive maintenance.
