Eaton JGU3080AAG Molded Case Breaker - UL Listed, 200kAIC

With an 80 A rating, the JGU3080AAG provides precise protection for motor, pump, and feeder circuits, reducing nuisance trips and preserving equipment life. This targeted protection improves uptime by ensuring smaller devices aren't tripped by inrush or transient faults. In practice, panel builders install it in machine-control enclosures and distribution panels where predictable, selective protection is essential for consistent production. Rated for 600 Vac and 250 Vdc, the MCCB supports both AC and DC control circuits common in modern plants, simplifying sourcing and spares inventory. The broad voltage capability translates to fewer part numbers while maintaining safe shutdown margins across equipment types. For users, this means faster design cycles and improved compliance when panels serve mixed-voltage loads in process plants and packaging lines. With a three-pole configuration and line/load terminations, wiring is straightforward, reducing field wiring errors and installation time. The JG frame promotes modular assembly, aiding panel designers in achieving neat, reproducible layouts. In applications such as automotive assembly lines or packaging machines, the compact footprint helps fit dense panels without sacrificing performance. Adjustable thermal and magnetic trip enables tailored selectivity, helping coordinate breakers across multiple branches and feeders. This capability minimizes the risk of cascading trips during fault conditions and supports faster fault isolation. For integrators, it means better coordination with upstream protections and lower total cost of ownership through extended equipment life and reduced maintenance. Interrupt ratings of 200 kAIC at 240 Vac, 150 kAIC at 480 Vac, and 50 kAIC at 600 Vac demonstrate robust fault-current capability for demanding facilities. In data centers, process plants, or heavy manufacturing, this translates to safer, more reliable protection of feeders and subcircuits. Series G construction and UL/CE/CSA certifications further reassure procurement teams that the product meets global standards. Compact dimensions (3.44 in L x 7 in H x 4.13 in W) and a 6 lb weight simplify installation in space-constrained panels, while line and load terminals support straightforward wiring and future upgrades. The combination of these physical and electrical attributes accelerates commissioning, reduces retrofit time, and lowers total installed cost for panel builders and OEMs.
