Feature → Business Impact → Application: The LGU4400AAW uses an adjustable thermal and magnetic trip, enabling precise overcurrent coordination that reduces downtime and avoids unnecessary tripping on transient faults in motor and panel circuits. This leads to measurable reliability gains in manufacturing lines and data-center feeders where uptime is critical. Application: Industrial control panels and machine rooms requiring stable protection with customizable trip curves. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Four-pole design provides synchronous protection across all phases, improving fault isolation and reducing arc-flash exposure in multi-phase systems. This is essential for large drives, pumps, and conveyors in processing plants. Feature → Business Impact → Application: 400 A rating with 200 kAIC at 240 V allows high fault-current resilience, supporting utility feeds and large motors while maintaining selectivity with upstream devices. Application: Main feeders and branch circuits in medium to large industrial installations. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Ultra-reliable LG frame compatibility and Series G family support quick installation, spare-part availability, and reduced commissioning time. Application: OEM panel builds and retrofit projects needing proven MCCB performance with minimal integration effort. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Without terminals configuration enables flexible field lugment options, which helps accommodate diverse busbar and terminal kits in custom panels. Application: Retrofit projects and modular switchgear assemblies where terminal kits are sourced separately. Feature → Business Impact → Application: UL Listed and HACR rated denotes compliance with North American protection standards, enabling easier procurement and regulatory acceptance. Application: Service upgrades, new builds, and safety-critical installations in commercial and light industrial sectors. Feature → Business Impact → Application: 50/60 Hz compatibility and 80% rated capability ensure reliable operation under typical utility supply conditions, reducing derating concerns and improving planning accuracy. Application: Areas with fluctuating grid quality or mixed-load profiles such as packaging lines, HVAC, and processing lines.

FAQs
LGU4400AAW is designed for the LG frame family and standard MCCB mounting patterns. Terminals are listed as without terminals, so select compatible lug kits or field-installed lugs to match panel busbars. Verify clearances and torque specs during installation to ensure secure, code-compliant connections and optimal heat dissipation.
The LGU4400AAW features adjustable thermal and magnetic trip units to tailor overcurrent protection to the load profile. Typical settings cover full-range motor and feeder protection with coordination to upstream devices. In practice, set the thermal curve for normal loading, then adjust magnetic trip for short-circuit protection based on system fault current levels.
The LGU4400AAW is HACR rated and UL Listed, aligning with North American standards while supporting broader IEC-based coordination practices where applicable. While the unit is common in North American panels, its adjustable trip and Series G LG frame also facilitate cross-market compatibility in multi-region projects, provided proper coordination and certification requirements are respected.
LGU4400AAW carries UL Listed certification and a HACR rating, which indicates suitability for motor and motor/control circuits with harmonized heat and arc-control considerations. HACR compliance helps ensure safer motor protection in commercial and industrial environments, while UL Listing confirms adherence to recognized safety standards for electrical protection devices.
The product carries Eaton’s warranty policy (25-000), offering one year from installation or eighteen months from shipment, whichever occurs first. For maintenance, follow standard MCCB practices: inspect terminals (when applicable), verify trip settings after any mechanical or electrical disturbances, and schedule periodic functional tests to sustain reliability and accurate protection.
