Material Compliance and Certifications

The Eaton HMCP250A5 is UL Listed and CSA Certified. These certifications are useful when confirming that a replacement component meets the certification requirements specified for compatible equipment or an electrical installation.

No additional material-compliance designations are provided in the supplied manufacturer specifications. If an application has specific environmental, material, or regulatory requirements beyond the listed certifications, those requirements should be verified separately.

Where It Works Best

The Eaton HMCP250A5 motor circuit protector is best suited to motor protection applications that specifically call for a 250A, three-pole Series C unit in a Frame J-K configuration. Its 350–700A magnetic trip range and maximum ratings of 600V AC and 250V DC should be checked against the requirements of the existing equipment before installation.
