Series G molded case circuit breakers provide increased performance in considerably less space than standard circuit breakers or comparable fusible devices. The "G" signifies global applications: Series G circuit breakers are marked with UL, CSA, CE, IEC and KEMA, KEUR listings.
The EG frames are designed around spacesaving footprints. Series G circuit breakers meet applicable UL 489 and IEC 60947-2 standards. The G family includes five frame sizes in ratings from 15 to 100 amperes. Series G offers a choice of several interrupting capacities up to 18 kA at 415 and 480 Vac. Standard calibration is 40°C.
The flexibility and outstanding performance characteristics of the circuit breakers are made possible by the best contact designs in circuit breaker history. Our technology creates a high-speed "blow-open" action using the electromechanical forces produced by high-level fault currents.
These circuit breakers are operated by a toggle-type mechanism that is mechanically trip-free from the handle so that the contacts cannot be held closed against short circuit currents. Tripping due to overload or short circuits is clearly indicated by the position on the handle. This remarkably fast and dependable contact action is designed to enhance safety.
