FAQs

The JKS-400 uses bolted blade end connections and a single-element design, which simplifies mounting and ensures a secure, vibration-resistant fit in standard Bussmann series fixtures. Plan for 7.13 in length and 2 in width/height, and confirm panel cutouts and clearance for safe insertion. Proper torque on blade connections is advised to maintain reliable fault interruption performance.
The JKS-400 is rated for 400 A with an interrupt rating of 200 kAIC at 600 Vac. It operates at a voltage rating of 600 V and provides fast-acting, current-limiting protection. This combination supports high-current feeders and ensures rapid fault clearance to protect downstream components and reduce damage during faults.
Yes. With a 400 A rating and 200 kAIC interrupt capability at 600 Vac, the JKS-400 is well suited for motor control centers, drive panels, and large control circuits. The bolted blade ends and standard packaging enable straightforward replacement and integration within existing Bussmann-based MCCs and distribution panels.
The JKS-400 is RoHS compliant, aligning with environmental and regulatory expectations in many regions. While RoHS is the primary listed certification in the data, the device is designed within the Eaton Bussmann Class J family to meet industry-standard electrical protection requirements for industrial applications.
Adopting the JKS-400 can reduce downtime from overcurrent events due to its fast-acting, high interrupt rating, protecting upstream equipment and minimizing downstream damage. The standard 7.13 in length and bolted blade ends streamline installation and spares management, lowering maintenance complexity and helping manufacturers achieve predictable TCO and improved line reliability.
