Eaton UHJ-W Cable Limiter for Bussmann Series - 100 kAIC

Part Number: UHJ-W
Manufacturer
Eaton
Part number
UHJ-W

Quick Summary

UHJ-W cable limiter provides fast fault-current protection for large feeder cables in industrial power systems. Engineers often grapple with oversized protectors and complex installations that drive up costs and extend project timelines. There are no explicit SIL, CE, or IP certifications listed for this unit; instead, its core ratings—100 kAIC interrupt capability and a 250 V rating—provide robust protection. This combination supports efficient procurement and scalable protection when paired with the Bussmann series catalogs and datasheets. In short, UHJ-W delivers reliable protection with broad conductor compatibility for steady, cost-effective power distribution. This makes it a practical choice for OEMs and integrators aiming to streamline design reviews and commissioning.

High interrupt rating and voltage: This device interrupts faults up to 100 kAIC at 250 V, ensuring fast fault clearance that minimizes damage to downstream gear and reduces unplanned downtime. In practice, that means your switchgear and panel buses stay healthier during fault events, keeping production lines running. It is well suited for industrial feeders where large-diameter cables are used, with 600 kcmil copper or 800 kcmil aluminum conductors. Conductor size compatibility and installation efficiency: Rated to accept copper conductors up to 600 kcmil and aluminum conductors up to 800 kcmil, the UHJ-W supports a broad range of feeder configurations. That broad size range reduces the need for custom jumpers or reterminations and simplifies stocking. In practice, this means faster BOM creation and fewer field substitutions during commissioning. Mechanical connection design eases mounting: Center bolt end x offset bolted end connections simplify mounting into switchboards and panels, saving space and reducing assembly time. The standardized connection reduces misalignment risk and supports consistent tensioning across installations, improving long-term reliability. Non-indicating fuse indicator reduces cost: Non-indicating fuse indicator lowers part count and avoids extra accessory costs, while external sensing options can be added if status is required. This approach offers a straightforward, field-friendly installation path with optional monitoring expanded as needed. Documentation and compatibility: Access to Eaton Bussmann catalogs and specification sheets provides quick reference for sizing and cross-compatibility with other Bussmann protective devices, ensuring a cohesive solution across power distribution networks.

FAQs

Installation starts with confirming the center bolt end x offset bolted end connection and ensuring the enclosure fits 250 V systems. The UHJ-W accepts copper conductors up to 600 kcmil and aluminum conductors up to 800 kcmil. Its lightweight footprint (0.97 in depth, 4.3 in height, 1.1 in width) simplifies fitment in dense panels and switchgear locations.
UHJ-W provides an interrupt rating of 100 kAIC at 250 V, enabling fast clearing of high-energy faults for robust protection of large feeders. This supports proper coordination with upstream protection devices and minimizes arc-flash exposure. With copper up to 600 kcmil and aluminum up to 800 kcmil, it accommodates a wide range of feeder configurations in industrial plants.
Designed as part of the Bussmann series protection lineup, the UHJ-W is well-suited for power distribution feeders in switchgear, panel boards, and large-diameter cable runs. Its center bolt end x offset bolted end connection aids mounting and reduces installation complexity in tight spaces. Always verify compatibility via Eaton Bussmann catalogs and datasheets for your specific installation.
The provided data indicate Not Applicable for Warranty and Compliances, and there are no explicit SIL, CE, or IP certifications listed. For regulatory alignment, consult Eaton's specification sheets and local standards to confirm current certifications before deployment and to ensure alignment with project-specific compliance requirements.
By delivering a high 100 kAIC interrupt rating with broad conductor support (600 kcmil Cu, 800 kcmil Al), the UHJ-W reduces equipment risk and downtime, lowers total installed cost through fewer parts, and streamlines procurement with a single compatible limiter for heavy feeders. This translates to faster commissioning, easier maintenance planning, and greater long-term reliability in demanding industrial environments.
