FAQs

CB2034T120480KC is designed for top-feed installations in large industrial switchgear. Ensure mounting in a compatible enclosure with secure anchoring, and plan for the 16 inch depth, 28 inch height, and 24 inch width. Wire to compatible bus bars and connectors, and verify local clearance and safety codes. The UL Listed certification supports compliant installations, and consider N-CT options if arc mitigation is needed.
Yes. The CB2034T120480KC is rated for 2000A at 480V in a three-pole, three-wire configuration. This makes it suitable for heavy-load, three-phase applications such as large motors, presses, and process lines where high current protection and reliable switching are required. Ensure matching with your panel ratings and wiring standards for safe operation.
The CB2034T120480KC carries UL Listed certification, indicating compliance with recognized safety standards for industrial use. This supports formal procurement and audit requirements in facilities prioritizing safety and reliability. If your project also requires CE or IP ratings, you should confirm compatibility with the specific installation and environment since those codes are not listed in the provided data.
The three-pole, three-wire configuration ensures balanced protection across all three phases, simplifying wiring layouts and improving symmetry in fault isolation. This arrangement is beneficial for large three-phase systems common in heavy manufacturing. Plan wire routing accordingly and verify that disconnect and protection coordination with upstream devices aligns with system protection coordination studies.
High-current protection devices like CB2034T120480KC reduce unplanned downtime by consolidating protection into a single robust switch, lowering maintenance complexity. While the enclosure is large and heavy (180 lb), the unit’s durability and UL Listed status support longer service life and fewer field interventions. Consider lifecycle costs, spare parts availability, and routine inspection intervals to maximize ROI.
