Material Compliance and Certifications

The HMCPE100T3C is UL Listed and CSA Certified. Its terminals use non-aluminum material. 

As with any electrical replacement component, certification is only part of the compatibility check. The catalog number, electrical ratings, frame, trip characteristics, and intended application should all agree with the requirements of the equipment in which the protector will be installed.

Where It Works Best

The HMCPE100T3C is best suited to motor protection equipment designed for a 100A, three-pole Eaton Series G motor circuit protector using the J-K frame and T98 trip configuration. It's especially relevant for maintenance and replacement work where preserving the original component's form, fit, and function is the priority.
