KDC3200 - 200Amp Circuit Breaker

KDC3200 - 200Amp Circuit Breaker

When you’re trying to keep existing electrical equipment in service, finding a breaker marked 200 amps is the easy part. The real question is whether everything else matches. If your application calls for a KDC3200, compare the part number, frame, trip type, poles, voltage, AIC ratings, dimensions, frequency, and terminals with the existing installation. When those details line up, you have a much clearer basis for confirming form, fit, and function.

Key Features and Benefits

• 200A, three-pole configuration: Designed for equipment that specifically requires this amperage and pole arrangement.
• Series C Type KDC breaker: The Series C and KDC designations are important identifiers when matching an existing breaker.
• Complete breaker configuration: The KDC3200 is specified as a complete molded-case circuit breaker, not a frame-only component.
• T186 trip type: Helps technicians confirm that the trip configuration corresponds with the breaker being replaced.
• 600 VAC and 250 VDC ratings: Provide clearly defined AC and DC voltage ratings for comparison with the application.
• Aluminum line and load terminals: Terminal location and material are both identified, removing another unknown from the compatibility check.
• 50–60Hz operation: Suitable where the equipment requirements correspond with this frequency range.

Where It Works Best

The KDC3200 makes the most sense in compatible existing or legacy electrical equipment that specifically calls for a 200-amp, three-pole Series C Type KDC molded case circuit breaker with a K frame and T186 trip type.

If you’re replacing an existing breaker, start with the catalog number—but don’t stop there. Check the 200A rating, three-pole configuration, 600VAC/250VDC voltage ratings, and 50–60Hz frequency range. Interrupting capacity needs to correspond to the application as well: the KDC3200 is rated at 100 kAIC at 480VAC and 200 kAIC at 240VAC.
