FAQs
When planning installation, account for the unit's size and weight (16 in depth, 28 in height, 24 in width, 175 lb) and ensure adequate mounting space in the control panel. The top feed and top fuse configuration simplify wiring and improves accessibility for service. With a 1600A rating, verify that bus and conductor sizing align with system requirements. The included Arc Energy Reduction Relay and matched CTs should be integrated into the protection scheme during commissioning.
The CB1633T120208E supports 1600A amperage with a 120 V control voltage and a 208 V voltage rating. It is a three-pole, three-wire device with top feed and top fuse configuration. These specifications make it suitable for high current feeders in switchgear and motor control centers, while UL Listed certification confirms compliance with safety standards in industrial environments.
Yes. The three-pole, three-wire configuration at 208 V and 1600 A current rating is well aligned with motor control centers and feeder protection in industrial facilities. The unit’s Arc Energy Reduction Relay and matched CTs provide robust protection and accurate fault coordination, while the integrated control transformer simplifies control circuit wiring and reduces installation time in MCCs and switchgear assemblies.
The CB1633T120208E is UL Listed, a key safety certification recognized across North American industrial facilities. This certification supports compliance with established safety standards for enclosed protection devices and protects personnel and equipment in harsh operating environments. While other certifications may be relevant for specific industries, UL Listed status is a strong baseline for reliability and regulatory acceptance in many facilities.
The integrated components – Arc Energy Reduction Relay, matched CTs, and control power transformer – reduce wiring, cabling complexity, and commissioning time, which lowers installation costs and startup delays. Reliable UL Listed operation minimizes downtime, while the high current rating and built-in protection improve equipment longevity. Overall, you should see faster maintenance cycles, fewer spare parts, and a shorter path to return on investment in high-demand environments.
