Eaton LDCB3500 Molded Case Circuit Breaker - UL 489

LDCB3500 delivers a focused set of features that translate directly into measurable value for engineering teams. Feature → Business Impact → Application: The 500 A amperage rating supports large feeders and motor circuits, reducing the need for oversized downstream protection and enabling simpler panel design for industrial MCCBs and power distribution. This lowers wiring complexity and improves energy management in manufacturing lines. Feature → 200 kAIC at 240 V and 100 kAIC at 480 V interrupt ratings provide high fault current handling, enhancing system resilience in data centers, factory floors, and process plants. Feature → Fixed thermal and fixed magnetic trip (T186) delivers fast, reliable protection against overloads and short circuits, minimizing downtime and wear on downstream equipment. Feature → L-frame, three-pole complete breaker offers a compact, standardized footprint that integrates smoothly with Series C MCCBs and common control panels, reducing engineering time during retrofits. Feature → Aluminum line/load terminals ensure robust, vibration-resistant connections in harsh environments typical of industrial environments. Feature → 50/60 Hz operation and a 23 lb weight support easy installation and compatibility across global facilities. Feature → UL 489 certification plus UL-listed 100%-rated documentation provides regulatory confidence and supports warranty continuity under Eaton policy 25-000. These specifications collectively enable reliable motor protection, simplified maintenance, and cost-efficient expansion in panel assemblies and MCC installations.
