700 A amperage rating with 65 kAIC at 240 VAC and 50 kAIC at 480 VAC delivers robust short-circuit protection across common industrial voltages, reducing fault duration and downstream damage. This directly translates to increased uptime and safer power distribution in manufacturing lines and high-demand drives. The fixed thermal-magnetic trip (T186) ensures fast, reliable protection while minimizing nuisance trips during normal inrush events common in conveyors and pumps. The MDLB2700 two-pole design on the MDL frame, part of Eaton Series C, simplifies installation and enables seamless compatibility with plug-in accessories and StrandAble terminals for tidy, scalable panel wiring. UL Listed certification supports compliance in critical audits and customer acceptance, while warranty coverage (one year from installation or 18 months from shipment) lowers lifecycle risk. Finally, documentation and product-selection resources from Eaton help ensure correct fitment for motor protection and feeder circuits in modern facilities.
