The NG3800S02 uses a Series C design to deliver robust protection for high-current, 3-Pole applications, allowing for dependable interruption during faults. This translates to improved uptime and reduced downstream damage, essential in engine-generator environments where even brief outages cost productivity. The left pole mounted shunt trip option provides fast, remote trip capability for generator start/stop sequences, enabling safer, synchronized operation with engine controls. With 9-24 VAC/VDC shunt trip and a 500-2500 A magnetic pickup range, protection can be tuned to the exact motor and generator characteristics, minimizing nuisance trips while preserving selective coordination. Its line and load terminals are included, simplifying installation in panels or MCCs and reducing wiring complexity. The unit supports 600 VAC systems and an 800 A rating, aligning with common industrial standards and reducing the need for cascading devices. By meeting UL 489 and IEC 60947-2 requirements and carrying CSA and CCC markings, it facilitates cross-market compliance, enabling faster procurement and fewer supplier constraints. Field installations benefit from a compact 6 in depth and 16.5 in height, aiding cabinet fitment in space-constrained facilities while delivering industry-leading protection for critical equipment. Businesses can leverage the Series C’s proven performance to shorten commissioning times, improve maintenance planning, and extend equipment life through accurate protection coordination and reliable fault interruption.
