The JGX4160AAG is a complete molded case circuit breaker in the Series G family with a JG frame, designed for easy integration into industrial switchgear and control panels. Feature → Business Impact → Application: It uses adjustable thermal and magnetic trip to tailor protection curves to specific loads, reducing nuisance trips and improving system uptime in motor control centers and distribution panels. Application: Suitable for 3-phase power distribution where precise coordination with downstream devices is essential. The 160 A amperage rating and 600 Vac interrupt capability (200 kAIC at 480 Vac and 240 Vac, 50 kAIC at 600 Vac) enable safe interruption of high fault currents, improving personnel safety and equipment protection in high-energy environments. Application: Industrial plants with motors and drives that demand robust fault clearing while maintaining service continuity. The four-pole design and line/load terminals support clean three-phase protection and straightforward wiring during installations and retrofits. Application: New panel builds and retrofit projects where clean, fast installation reduces commissioning time. Metric mounting hardware and compact dimensions enhance compatibility with standard MCCB enclosures and existing bussing, lowering installation costs. Application: Retrofit of legacy boards or expansion in modular switchgear where space is at a premium. Certifications include CE Marked and CSA Certified, with UL Listed documentation; note the product’s special features indicate not UL rated for certain configurations—verify with project requirements. Application: Compliance-driven deployments across European and North American facilities.
