Eaton CVS2080X Molded Case Circuit Breaker - 42 kAIC
Part Number: CVS2080X
Quick Summary
Eaton CVS2080X Molded Case Circuit Breaker provides reliable overcurrent protection for industrial panels in electrical distribution systems. Upgrading panels frequently creates compatibility challenges, space limitations, and uncertain trip performance during outages or demand surges. This CVS2080X carries UL 489 and CSA Std. C22.2 certifications, reinforcing safety, quality, and cross-market acceptance for industrial installations. With a CV frame, two-pole configuration, and 80 A rating, it streamlines procurement, improves serviceability, and reduces downtime over the equipment life. Its 42 kAIC interrupt rating supports fast fault interruption, protecting feeders and downstream equipment. Design features such as #6-4/0 AWG Cu/Al wire sizing and #4/0 kcmil load terminate easily with standard lugs, facilitating installation across new builds and panel refurbishments.
