Amperage capacity of 1200 A provides headroom for large feeders, enabling protection without oversizing panels and reducing spare parts. The 65 kAIC interrupt rating delivers high-energy fault tolerance, cutting the risk of equipment damage and arc flash exposure in critical loads such as data centers and heavy manufacturing. Two-pole design with imperial tapped line and load terminals ensures compatibility with legacy panels and flexible installation in NG-frame switchgear, simplifying retrofits and stocking requirements. Reverse-feed capability, noted in Eaton’s catalog, supports versatile panel configurations and reduces wiring rearrangements during upgrades. Compliance with HACR, UL Listed, and CSA Certified standards reinforces safety and regulatory alignment, while a 1-year warranty (or 18 months from shipment) provides predictable maintenance planning. Real-world users benefit from streamlined MCCB sizing and improved panel protection in industrial power distribution.
