CA2175 - 175Amp Circuit Breaker

CA2175 - 175Amp Circuit Breaker

If you're maintaining an existing electrical distribution system, finding the right replacement breaker is about more than matching an amperage rating. The CA2175 is a 175 Amp, 2 Pole Type CA molded case circuit breaker designed for use in compatible 120/240VAC applications where maintaining the original equipment configuration is important. With its 10kA interrupting capacity, non-interchangeable trip unit, and included line-side and load-side lugs, this breaker provides the form, fit, and function required for many established electrical systems.

In commercial facilities, industrial environments, and other demanding applications, circuit breakers help protect electrical equipment from overloads and short circuits. The CA2175 is built to last and is rated for operation in ambient temperatures up to 40°C (104°F), making it suitable for a variety of indoor power distribution applications. Its compact footprint and two-pole design make it a practical choice when replacing a breaker in existing switchboards, panelboards, or distribution equipment designed for Type CA breakers.

Whether you're performing scheduled maintenance, replacing a failed breaker, or restoring an existing system, the CA2175 offers the ratings and configuration required for many compatible installations.
