Material Compliance and Certifications

The HMCP050G2 is UL Listed and CSA Certified. These certifications can be important when replacing components in equipment or installations that require specific approvals for maintenance.

The manufacturer's supplied specifications list additional compliance information as "Contact Manufacturer." Any project-specific material, environmental, or regulatory requirements should therefore be confirmed before installation rather than assumed.

Where It Works Best

The HMCP050G2 is best suited to compatible motor protection applications calling for a 50A, three-pole Series C motor circuit protector with a J-K frame and an 80–120A magnetic trip range.

It's particularly useful when you're maintaining an existing or legacy system and need to match the original component's form, fit, and function. In those situations, the catalog number is only part of the equation. Check the amperage, magnetic trip range, frame size, pole configuration, physical dimensions, and required certifications against the equipment specifications.
