Eaton LGEDC3600FAG PVGuard Solar MCCB - UL 489

Feature → Business Impact → Application: The LGEDC3600FAG uses a three-pole LG-frame molded case design, enabling reliable DC protection for solar arrays while maintaining a compact footprint. This directly reduces panel space and simplifies routing in PV enclosures, speeding installation and minimizing wiring errors in industrial rooftops or utility-scale facilities. Application: Ideal for commercial PV installations that demand dependable protection at up to 600 A and 600 VAC, with strong interrupt ratings across voltage levels to tolerate PV transients. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Fixed thermal with adjustable magnetic trip (T185) provides tailor-made protection for DC PV strings, improving safety margins and extending equipment life by preventing nuisance tripping while still guarding critical components. Application: Useful in batteryless PV systems and hybrid inverters where precise trip coordination optimizes downtime recovery and maintenance intervals. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Line and load terminals with metric mounting simplify on-site wiring and panel integration, reducing mounting time and improving terminal integrity in dense DC configurations. Application: Suitable for panelboards, switchgear, and PV combiner enclosures where metric hardware streamlines compliance and space utilization. Feature → Business Impact → Application: UL 489 certification underpins regulatory compliance and electrical safety, helping project teams meet NEC/IEC requirements and enabling easier future audits. Application: Essential for commercial, utility-grade, or EPC projects requiring documented safety approval for DC protection devices. Feature → Business Impact → Application: High interrupt ratings (up to 65 kAIC at 240 VAC and up to 35 kAIC at 480 VAC) deliver robust fault-current protection for diverse PV configurations, reducing the risk of cascading failures and equipment damage. Application: Critical for utility-scale PV installations and large commercial arrays where fault currents may surge during grid disturbances. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Warranty aligned with Eaton policies provides peace of mind and supports total cost of ownership calculations for procurement teams. Application: Aligns with service contracts and maintenance planning in asset-intensive facilities. Context and expertise: This device is designed for PV protection using the LG-frame complete breaker format, with clear alignment to installation best practices and industry-standard documentation including PVGard literature and datasheets to support commissioning and training.
