Eaton LWC3500 Complete Molded Case Breaker - IEC Rated

Interchangeable thermal‑magnetic trip provides precise coordination and safe shutdown, reducing nuisance trips and unplanned downtime. This improves line-side protection for critical loads and simplifies testing during commissioning, especially when integrating MCCBs into legacy panels. The feature supports faster fault analysis, easier maintenance, and consistent performance in varying electrical conditions across manufacturing environments. Three-pole L-frame construction delivers robust protection for three-phase circuits and high-current feeders. The 500 A rating with 690 Vac and 250 Vdc capability covers motor starters, drives, and power distribution networks in modern facilities, enabling safer startup and smoother operation. This combination minimizes the need for aftermarket upgrades during plant expansion while maintaining coordinated protection across equipment. Line and load terminals simplify wiring and improve field reliability by ensuring correct connection orientation and making field changes straightforward. As a complete breaker, it reduces the number of components in a panel and cuts installation time, while standardizing components across multiple panels. The 8.25 in length, height, and width footprint aligns with common enclosure standards, easing retrofit projects and spare-parts planning. IEC Rated certification aligns with international safety standards, supporting global deployments across facilities. UL-listed resources documented by Eaton provide validated performance references for 100%-rated MCCBs, reinforcing reliability in North American markets. The Eaton selling policy warranty offers predictable service planning and helps justify lifecycle maintenance budgets. For panel builders, OEMs, and maintenance teams, LWC3500 integrates with Eaton's MCCB ecosystem to enable consistent protection schemes across machines and lines. The proven performance in harsh environments, strong availability, and Eaton's global support help reduce downtime, simplify training, and lower total cost of ownership over the equipment lifecycle.
