MCP03150 - 15Amp Motor Circuit Protector

MCP03150 - 15Amp Motor Circuit Protector

When you're replacing a motor circuit protector, the catalog number is only the beginning. The electrical ratings, trip characteristics, physical size, and terminal configuration must match the application. For legacy equipment that specifically calls for the MCP03150 or the same electrical and physical configuration, it can be considered a form, fit, and functional replacement candidate when all application requirements match. Its solid construction is built to last when selected, installed, and maintained correctly.

Key Features and Benefits

• 15 Amp Rating: Matches applications requiring the MCP03150's 15A rating.
• 3-Pole Configuration: Includes three poles, as specified for this motor circuit protector.
• Magnetic-Only Protection: The MCP03150 uses magnetic-only operation rather than a thermal-magnetic trip configuration.
• 50–150 Amp Instantaneous Trip Range: The supplied specifications list an instantaneous trip range of 50 to 150 amps.
• 600VAC Rating: Provides an important electrical specification to confirm against the existing equipment and circuit requirements.
• Standard Terminals Included: Includes standard aluminum alloy terminals, eliminating guesswork about the terminal material.
• Replacement-Focused Selection: Before use, check the part number, amperage, poles, voltage, trip range, dimensions, and terminals against the existing installation.
