Built for demanding industrial environments, this 300-amp Eaton Tri-Pac MCCB features specialized current-limiting technology. It pairs standard thermal-magnetic protection with internal fuses to rapidly clear high-level short circuits. This unit bolts into Westinghouse and Cutler-Hammer motor control centers. Facilities can also transition to the Series C LCL3300 equivalent. Boasting a 200 kAIC rating at 600V, it ensures reliable performance while drastically reducing let-through energy.

Product FAQs
8 answers
What equipment is compatible with the LA3300PR breaker?
This bolt-on L-Frame breaker is designed for installation in Eaton, Cutler-Hammer, and legacy Westinghouse panelboards, switchboards, and motor control centers.
How does the LA3300PR achieve its high 200kA interrupting capacity?
It utilizes a Tri-Pac integrally fused design. This current-limiting technology pairs standard thermal-magnetic protection with internal fuses to rapidly clear high-level short circuits and reduce let-through energy.
What is the magnetic trip adjustment range for the LA3300PR?
The instantaneous magnetic trip function is adjustable from 1500 to 3000 amps, allowing panel builders to coordinate short-circuit protection with downstream devices.
What wire sizes do the standard lugs accommodate?
The included lugs accept either a single 4 AWG to 600 kcmil conductor or dual 3/0 AWG to 250 kcmil conductors. They are rated for both aluminum and copper wiring.
Can I use this to replace a legacy Westinghouse LA3300PR?
Yes. Eaton acquired the Westinghouse distribution equipment line, making the Eaton, Cutler-Hammer, and Westinghouse LA3300PR models exact physical and electrical matches.
Is there a newer Series C equivalent for the LA3300PR?
Yes, facilities looking to upgrade or transition to the Eaton Series C family can use the LCL3300 current-limiting circuit breaker as a modern equivalent.
How does the current-limiting feature protect downstream equipment?
By utilizing internal fuses, the breaker clears massive faults faster than standard mechanical contacts can open. This drastically limits the peak let-through current and thermal energy, reducing mechanical stress on the protected circuit.
Is the LA3300PR suitable for DC power systems?
Yes, in addition to its AC ratings, this breaker is rated for 250VDC applications with a 100kA interrupting capacity, making it suitable for heavy industrial DC circuits.
