FAQs
SPECIAL1219 uses a J-frame, three-pole design with line-side terminals, matching the Series C architecture. Its complete breaker construction and non-interchangeable thermal-magnetic trip ensure consistent fit and protection, simplifying retrofits and new installations while maintaining coordination with other Eaton protection devices.
The SPECIAL1219 provides 65 kAIC at 240 Vac and 35 kAIC at 480 Vac. This high interrupt rating means the breaker can safely interrupt significant fault currents, protecting transformers, switchgear, and motors from damage and permitting more reliable operation in facilities with elevated short-circuit levels.
Yes, the SPECIAL1219 supports shunt trip options. When wiring, ensure compatibility with the panel’s control wiring, proper clearance for the tripping device, and correct wiring of the shunt trip coil to maintain reliable remote trip functionality without compromising safety or service access.
For best results, mount in a compliant enclosure with adequate clearance, use line-side terminals per catalog specifications, and verify circuit loading stays within the 225 A rating. Consider coordination with upstream protection and downstream devices, and reference Eaton’s time-current curves for accurate selectivity in your application.
Eaton provides a dedicated specification sheet for SPECIAL1219, time-current curves, and MCCB product selection guidance. Additional resources include application notes and catalogs detailing series C, jumper terminals, and terminal compatibility, which help with installation planning, compliance checks, and long-term maintenance planning.
