Eaton Specification Sheet - KAC-15
The 15 A current rating combined with a 200 kAIC interrupt rating enables rapid fault clearance, protecting downstream circuitry and reducing arc exposure. This fast-acting behavior minimizes equipment damage, lowers unplanned downtime, and cuts maintenance costs in high-speed motor and drive systems. Application-friendly sizing and a compact footprint make it ideal for dense control panels and space-constrained enclosures. The blade-end x blade-end connections paired with stud mounting offer installation flexibility, simplifying retrofits and new builds in industrial environments. CE Marked and UL Recognized provide multi-region compliance, facilitating global procurement and reducing regulatory risk. The non-indicating design keeps panel aesthetics clean while the standard packaging supports efficient stocking and logistics, enabling faster project execution and lower overall ownership costs. In short, KAC-15 delivers reliable protection, repeatable performance, and operational value in demanding industrial settings.

FAQs
Install the KAC-15 with blade-end x blade-end connections and use the stud mounting option for secure attachment to panel rails or fuse blocks. Verify conductor sizing and torque requirements per the datasheet, then route wiring to ensure clearances from heat sources. Use the 0.5 in by 0.5 in footprint to maximize panel density and simplify future upgrades.
The KAC-15 delivers a 15 A rating with a 200 kAIC interrupt capability, enabling rapid fault clearance in motor drive circuits. This reduces arc exposure, limits downtime, and protects downstream drive electronics. The high-speed response is particularly beneficial for short-circuit events in variable frequency drives and other dynamic loads common in industrial automation.
The KAC-15 is CE Marked and UL Recognized, covering European and North American safety and compliance requirements. This multi-region certification simplifies cross-border procurement, lowers supplier audit risk, and supports global deployment in OEMs’ multi-site facilities, helping ensure regulatory alignment during audits and in product documentation.
Yes. The KAC-15 features blade-end x blade-end connections and a stud mounting method, offering flexible installation in a variety of control enclosures. This compatibility enables straightforward retrofits and scalable panel designs, reducing wiring complexity and enabling quicker project turnover without sacrificing protection reliability.
By delivering fast fault isolation (200 kAIC) and robust protection in a compact form factor, the KAC-15 minimizes unplanned downtime and limits equipment damage, translating to lower maintenance costs and longer equipment life. The standard packaging and versatile mounting reduce installation time, inventory complexity, and total cost of ownership for industrial panels and machine builds.
