Selling Policy 25-000 - Distribution and Control Products and Services
High amperage, single-phase, five-jaw design provides a robust metering point for 200A service; routing power through the #6-350 kcmil load and line conductors reduces lug complexity and voltage drop, delivering measurable efficiency gains on larger commercial feeders. This translates to safer terminations and smoother commissioning in overhead configurations where space and accessibility are critical. Overhead feed with a 3-5/16 in hub opening simplifies installation across a range of meter enclosures, while a ringless design minimizes snag risks during enclosure work and improves field safety during service transitions. Lever bypass enables rapid maintenance tests without de-energizing the entire system, reducing downtime and supporting safer, faster utility coordination. UL Listed certification and a 600 V rating ensure compliance and consistent performance in demanding environments. A warranty aligned with Eaton’s Selling Policy 25-000 provides enterprise-level risk mitigation and predictable support for procurement teams. Ground conn (#14-#2 Cu) and the device’s compact footprint enhance compatibility with existing electrical distributions and ease of retrofits in retrofit projects.
