Eaton Specification Sheet - DG224NRK
200 A protection with fusible neutral and Class H fuses is designed to quickly isolate faults, minimizing arc energy and preventing collateral damage. This improves equipment uptime and reduces maintenance costs in industrial power distribution. Ideal for general duty safety switch applications in motor control centers and service panels. NEMA 3R enclosure and painted galvanized steel provide weather resistance and durability in challenging environments, extending service life and lowering replacement costs in outdoor installations and unconditioned spaces. UL Listed certification and NEC 230.62 barrier compliance ensure regulatory alignment during audits, helping preserve warranty validity and simplifying safety program documentation. Two-pole, three-wire configuration with neutral supports wiring simplicity and reduces misconnection risk for 240 V circuits. The 25.5 in height and 16 in width enable straightforward retrofit into existing enclosures, while remaining compliant with standard installation practices. Warranty details (Eaton policy 25-000) reinforce lifecycle cost predictability for project planning. Catalog notes emphasize that maximum hp ratings apply when dual element fuses are used, with the 3-phase hp rating reflecting a grounded B phase rating, which is essential for correct motor load coordination.
