FAQs

When installing the KG3300WA12S43X02Y04, ensure proper alignment with optional line or load terminals and plan for the left-side shunt trip (12-24 Vac/dc) and right-side auxiliary switch (2A-2B). The unit supports a right-side pigtail for the auxiliary contact and a left-side pigtail for the shunt trip, enabling remote interlock and signaling in typical engine-generator assemblies. Verify panel space and clearance per OEM guidelines to maintain reliable operation and ease field servicing.
Key specifications include a 300 A amperage rating, 600 Vac voltage rating, and 60 Hz frequency for standard industrial power systems. It is a three-pole KG frame complete breaker with a T186 trip type. The interrupt ratings are 18 kAIC at 240 Vac and 14 kAIC at 480 Vac, supporting robust short-circuit protection for engine-generator applications while maintaining coordination with downstream protections.
Yes. Designed as a complete engine-generator molded case circuit breaker, it protects three-phase generator feeds with a rigid 300 A, 600 Vac specification, and a T186 trip profile for fast fault interruption. The option for line/load terminals and remote shunt trip integrates well with industrial control systems, ensuring safe shutdown sequences and uptime in heavy manufacturing environments.
