MCP3532500C - 250Amp Motor Circuit Protector

MCP3532500C - 250Amp Motor Circuit Protector

A 250 amp motor circuit protector replacement has several specifications that you must match before it can be considered a fit. The MCP3532500C is a 3-pole Type MCP motor circuit protector rated at 600VAC, with magnetic-only operation and an instantaneous trip range of 1,250–2,500 amps.

Key Features and Benefits

• 250 Amp, 3-Pole Configuration: Clearly identified electrical characteristics make it easier to compare the MCP3532500C with an existing motor circuit protector.
• Magnetic-Only Operation: Uses the specified magnetic-only trip configuration for this MCP model.
• 1,250–2,500A Instantaneous Trip Range: Provides a defined instantaneous trip range that you can check directly against application requirements.
• 600VAC Rating: Provides another key electrical specification for compatibility verification.
• Non-Aluminum Terminals Included: This configuration specifically includes non-aluminum terminals, an important distinction when matching an existing installation.
