Eaton Specification Sheet - CB4033T120208RARCT
High-current capability with 4000 A rating at 208 V enables direct interruption of large fault currents, reducing bus and transformer stress and enabling reliable protection in substations and switchgear. This translates to fewer nuisance trips and lower maintenance costs in demanding industrial environments. The SPVR capacitor trip device provides faster, controlled disconnection, minimizing arc flash exposure and downtime during faults, which is critical for mission-critical manufacturing lines and data center infrastructure. Top-feed, three-pole, fusible configuration simplifies wiring and reduces installation time, while the no ground fault design supports safer, cleaner fault paths and easier compliance with site electrical standards. NEMA 1, 3R, 4, and 12 compatibility ensures robust performance across indoor, outdoor, and rugged environments, reducing the need for multiple protective devices and lowering total lifecycle costs. Optional Ground Fault Relay and Blown Fuse Detection expand protection coverage, enabling proactive maintenance and fault diagnosis, which improves uptime and safety across critical power distribution networks.

FAQs
CB4033T120208RARCT is engineered for top-feed, three-pole installations with fusible protection. It supports standard 208 V control and system voltages and can replace older bolted-contact switches in compatible Eaton and non-Eaton switchgear, as long as enclosure ratings (NEMA 1/3R/4/12) are satisfied and SPVR/trip device wiring aligns with the control transformer and any Kirk or auxiliary provisions.
Key specifications include a 4000 A amperage rating, 120 V control voltage, 208 V system voltage, and 208 V voltage max. It features a single-phase voltage relay with capacitor trip device (SPVR), three-pole electrical trip, fusible protection, and optionally a ground fault relay and blown fuse detection. The unit is UL Listed and designed for robust protection in demanding power distribution.
Yes. With NEMA ratings of 1, 3R, 4, and 12, the CB4033T120208RARCT is suitable for a wide range of indoor and outdoor environments, including wash-downs and moderate outdoor exposure. Its top-feed, three-pole design and SPVR capability make it ideal for motor control centers and switchgear where high-current protection and fast fault isolation are required.
The product is UL Listed, ensuring compliance with recognized safety standards for electrical switching devices. This certification supports installation in UL-labeled assemblies and enhances supplier and contractor confidence during audits and commissioning in industrial facilities.
The SPVR capacitor trip device enables faster, more predictable trips, reducing arc-flash exposure and wear on protective elements. Optional features like Ground Fault Relay and Blown Fuse Detection provide proactive fault detection, lowering unplanned downtime. The unit’s high-current capacity and rugged enclosure compatibility translate to lower total cost of ownership through fewer replacements and simplified maintenance planning.
