HMCP250F5C - 250Amp Motor Circuit Protector

HMCP250F5C - 250Amp Motor Circuit Protector

The Eaton HMCP250F5C is a 250A, three-pole motor circuit protector from the Series C family, designed for Frame J-K applications. For maintenance teams, electricians, and facility professionals working with existing electrical equipment, matching the exact specifications of the original device is essential—and the HMCP250F5C provides clearly defined ratings for that purpose. Whether you're replacing a matching motor circuit protector or maintaining equipment built around Series C components, always verify the complete catalog number, amperage, frame size, pole count, voltage, trip range, terminal configuration, and dimensions before installation.
