Eaton JGX9160AAG Complete MCCB - 200 kAIC, JG-frame Series G
Part Number: JGX9160AAG
Quick Summary
The Eaton JGX9160AAG is a complete molded case circuit breaker that provides reliable overcurrent protection in industrial control panels and motor feeder circuits. This device combines adjustable thermal and magnetic trip with four poles to safeguard equipment while enabling precise coordination with downstream devices. A common challenge in control panel design is achieving fast, predictable tripping without nuisance trips under variable loads and harmonic content. The JGX9160AAG meets this need with adjustable trip settings and robust interrupt ratings across 240 to 600 V, backed by CE, UL, CSA, and IEC certifications. For system integrators and maintenance teams, its compact JG-frame size, metric mounting hardware, and clear line/load terminals translate to faster installs, easier maintenance, and reduced commissioning time.

FAQs
Installation requires mounting the complete breaker in a compatible JG frame enclosure using metric mounting hardware. Connect the line and load conductors to the designated terminals, ensure the neutral pole is properly engaged for 100% protection, and set the trip values to match system protection coordination. Verify clearance, torque specifications, and bus bar alignment before energizing. Always follow OEM installation guides and local electrical codes.
The device is a 160 A four-pole MCCB with a 600 Vac rating. It offers adjustable thermal and magnetic trips, enabling customized protection curves. Interrupt ratings include up to 200 kAIC at 480 Vac and 240 Vac, with 50 kAIC at 600 Vac, making it suitable for medium-size industrial feeders and machine control circuits while providing fast fault clearance.
Yes. Its four-pole design, high interrupt capacity, and adjustable trip functionality support reliable protection in control panels and machine feeders. The compact JG-frame and line/load terminal arrangement simplify panel layouts, while the 160 A rating supports common centralized protection schemes in manufacturing environments.
The JGX9160AAG is CE marked and UL Listed with CSA certification, and IEC rated. These certifications indicate compliance with international safety and performance standards, facilitating global procurement, reducing regulatory risk, and supporting conformity to electrical installation codes across multiple regions.
Series G MCCBs offer robust protection with adjustable setpoints, reducing nuisance trips and extending equipment life. The complete breaker design simplifies replacement, while metric mounting hardware and standardized terminals speed up preventive maintenance.
