Selling Policy 25-000 - Distribution and Control Products and Services
80 A trip rating with an HFD circuit breaker provides precise overcurrent protection for motor feeders. The business impact is reduced equipment wear, fewer unplanned outages, and improved maintenance planning, which translates to higher line uptime in conveyors and machine centers. In practice, this configuration is ideal for mid-range motor loads in automation panels where reliable protection and predictable performance are essential. The single feeder design simplifies wiring and panel layout, lowering installation time and reducing wiring errors, which cuts commissioning costs and accelerates project timelines for industrial facilities implementing modular MCCs. The 12-inch unit size delivers a compact footprint that fits tight spaces while maintaining accessible service clearances, enabling flexible mounting on standard frames and reducing enclosure footprint requirements in retrofits. Lever/slider handle operation provides fast circuit isolation and safer manual control, supporting straightforward lockout/tagout during maintenance and testing in busy production lines. UL Listed certification and Eaton’s one-year warranty framework further enhance compliance, risk reduction, and overall reliability for regulated manufacturing environments, while compatibility with the broader F10 ecosystem minimizes design risk and accelerates integration with existing frames and accessories. This mature combination of protection, mechanical design, and field-wiring compatibility supports reduced downtime, lower spare parts inventory, and a longer productive life for critical motor circuits across automation environments.

FAQs
Yes. The FRF1J12 is purpose-built to integrate with the Eaton F10 series as a single-feeder MCC. It aligns with standard frame dimensions, lever/slider operation, and HFD protection, enabling straightforward replacement or expansion within existing installations. This compatibility reduces design effort, minimizes field wiring changes, and preserves consistent protection and performance across the system.
FRF1J12 features an 80 A trip rating and uses an HFD circuit breaker for high-demand motor circuits. This combination provides reliable overload protection, improves nuisance-trip resistance, and supports dependable operation of medium-sized motors in automation panels. The protection is suitable for continuous duty environments typical of manufacturing floors and packaging lines.
FRF1J12 is designed for 80 A motor circuits and uses an HFD breaker, offering solid protection for many medium-size loads. However, for high-inrush or startup-heavy applications, verify that the inrush current remains within the 80 A trip envelope and consider coordinating with upstream protection and starter strategies. In many cases, a tailored protection scheme or staged startup can optimize performance.
FRF1J12 is UL Listed, indicating compliance with recognized safety standards for industrial control equipment. Eaton provides a one-year warranty from installation or eighteen months from shipment, whichever occurs first, as outlined in Selling Policy 25-000. This combination helps manage risk, supports regulatory conformity, and provides assurance for long-term reliability in production environments.
The FRF1J12’s lever/slider isolation, single feeder wiring, and compact 12-inch footprint streamline maintenance tasks and reduce downtime during service windows. Its UL Listed status adds compliance confidence, while the 80 A protection and robust build limit unexpected failures. Over the product lifecycle, this translates to lower maintenance labor, fewer spare parts, and a lower total cost of ownership for factories implementing organized MCC ecosystems.
