Eaton CVS2175LL3 Molded Case Circuit Breaker - 42 kAIC
Part Number: CVS2175LL3
Quick Summary
Eaton CVS2175LL3 Molded Case Circuit Breaker provides reliable overcurrent protection for CV frame main circuits in switchgear and load centers. Nuisance trips and downtime during upgrades and panel retrofits can drive costs, so a robust, predictable protector matters. This unit is certified UL 489 and CSA C22.2 No. 5, supporting compliant installations across low-voltage systems. For engineers and procurement teams, it integrates with CV frame panels and two-pole configurations to streamline installation and long-term reliability. With a 175 A rating and a 42 kAIC interrupt capability, it protects feeders and downstream equipment while supporting #6-4/0 AWG Cu/Al conductors. Its space-efficient dimensions and durable construction reduce panel crowding and maintenance needs across complex distribution networks.
