FAQs
The JGEDC3200FAG is designed for PV solar protection, particularly in photovoltaic arrays and inverters. As a 200 A, three-pole molded case breaker with line and load terminals, it provides overcurrent protection for both AC and DC circuits up to 600 Vac and 250 Vdc.
Key specs include a 200 A amperage rating, 600 Vac and 250 Vdc voltage ratings, 35 kAIC interrupt rating at 600 Vac, and a T185 trip type in the JG frame. It is a three-pole complete MCCB with fixed thermal and adjustable magnetic trip.
T185 is the adjustable magnetic trip characteristic for faster response to surge currents, enabling precise coordination with PV inverters and array conductors. Combined with fixed thermal trip, it provides reliable protection against short circuits while minimizing nuisance trips during normal PV operating conditions.
Yes, the JGEDC3200FAG is UL 489 listed, meeting the standard for molded case circuit breakers. It supports 600 Vac and is intended for industrial electrical protection. Its 35 kAIC interrupt rating reinforces its suitability for medium-scale protection in panels, switchgear, and PV system racks.
It uses a complete JG frame with line and load terminals and metric mounting hardware. Installers should observe torque specifications for terminals, verify DC and AC compatibility, and ensure proper enclosure protection. The product supports fixed thermal and adjustable magnetic trips, helping to align protection with system design.
