HMCP070M2C - 70Amp Motor Circuit Protector

HMCP070M2C - 70Amp Motor Circuit Protector

The HMCP070M2C is an Eaton 70-amp, three-pole motor circuit protector (MCP) used in Series C molded-case circuit breaker systems. In simple terms, it’s a magnetic-only protection device designed to help protect your motor circuits from short-circuit conditions while working within an existing Eaton breaker setup. It’s commonly found in industrial and commercial panels where keeping the original breaker style, frame size, and electrical ratings consistent really matters.
