Designed for maximum fault protection, this 250-amp Series C L-Frame breaker operates as a current-limiting device in demanding environments. Because it is supplied as a frame only, users must add a compatible electronic trip unit and rating plug before deployment. The bolt-on configuration is specifically built to integrate with Eaton Pow-R-Line 4 panelboards and motor control centers.
What equipment is the LCL3250F breaker frame compatible with?
The Eaton LCL3250F is designed for use with Eaton Pow-R-Line 4 panelboards, switchboards, and motor control centers.
Is the LCL3250F a complete circuit breaker?
No, the LCL3250F is supplied as a frame only. A compatible Series C electronic trip unit and rating plug must be installed separately before the breaker can be deployed.
What does the LCL designation indicate for this breaker?
In the Eaton Series C family, the LCL designation indicates a current-limiting molded case circuit breaker. It is designed to provide maximum fault protection by restricting let-through current during a short circuit.
Can I use the LCL3250F in a standard residential load center?
No, the LCL3250F is a Series C L-Frame breaker designed for industrial applications. It is only compatible with commercial and industrial enclosures like Pow-R-Line 4 panelboards and motor control centers.
What type of trip unit is required for the LCL3250F frame?
The LCL3250F requires a compatible Eaton Series C electronic trip unit, such as a Seltronic or Digitrip model, along with the appropriate rating plug to set the continuous current rating.
Can the LCL3250F replace older Westinghouse or Cutler-Hammer LCL breakers?
Yes, Eaton acquired the Cutler-Hammer and Westinghouse breaker lines. The LCL3250F is a direct replacement for legacy Cutler-Hammer and Westinghouse LCL 250A frames with the same catalog number.
Does the LCL3250F utilize thermal-magnetic trip elements?
No, the LCL3250F is designed for electronic trip technology. It relies on a solid-state electronic trip unit rather than traditional thermal-magnetic elements to provide precise overload and short-circuit protection.
What determines the actual continuous current rating of the LCL3250F?
While the LCL3250F frame has a maximum capacity of 250 amps, the operational continuous current rating is determined by the specific rating plug installed in the electronic trip unit.
