Product FAQs
7 answers
What type of enclosures and systems are compatible with the SSF2G5X3U000000?
This insulated case circuit breaker is engineered specifically for installation in GE Power Break II switchboards, switchgear, and motor control centers.
What type of connection does the SSF2G5X3U000000 require?
This unit-mount breaker requires a direct busbar connection. Ensure your switchgear or switchboard is configured for a stationary, bolt-on installation rather than a draw-out cradle.
Can the SSF2G5X3U000000 be used in a draw-out configuration?
No, this specific model is configured as a unit-mount (stationary) breaker. It must be bolted directly to the busbar and cannot be installed in a draw-out substructure.
How does the LSIG electronic trip unit on the SSF2G5X3U000000 protect electrical systems?
The adjustable electronic trip unit provides comprehensive protection by allowing precise configuration of Long-Time (overload), Short-Time (short circuit), Instantaneous (severe short circuit), and Ground-Fault parameters to coordinate with downstream devices.
Does the SSF2G5X3U000000 include integrated ground-fault protection?
Yes, the included LSIG electronic trip unit features built-in ground-fault protection. This is critical for meeting NEC requirements for solidly grounded wye services rated 1000A or more at 480V.
Why is the SSF2G5X3U000000 listed under both ABB and General Electric?
General Electric originally designed and manufactured the Power Break II series. ABB acquired GE Industrial Solutions, so this breaker is now distributed and supported under the ABB brand portfolio.
Can accessories like shunt trips or undervoltage releases be added to the SSF2G5X3U000000?
Yes, the Power Break II platform supports field-installable accessories. Devices such as shunt trips, undervoltage releases, and bell alarms can be mounted in dedicated accessory compartments on the front of the breaker.
