CA2175X - 175Amp Circuit Breaker

CA2175X - 175Amp Circuit Breaker

The CA2175X is a 175 Amp, 2 Pole Type CA molded case circuit breaker designed for you to use in compatible electrical distribution systems requiring a breaker with matching ratings and configuration. Rated for 120/240VAC applications with a 10kA interrupting capacity, this breaker is commonly used in commercial and industrial environments where maintaining existing equipment specifications is important.

Built with a non-interchangeable trip unit, the CA2175X provides the form, fit, and function needed for designated Type CA applications. This model includes load-side lugs, helping you simplify installation in systems designed for this configuration. Whether you're using it during scheduled maintenance, equipment repair, or replacement of an existing breaker, matching amperage, pole configuration, voltage rating, and interrupting capacity is essential for proper system operation.

With a 40°C (104°F) ambient temperature rating, the CA2175X is intended for use in suitable indoor electrical distribution equipment operating within its published specifications. Its compact design and established Type CA configuration make it a practical choice for maintaining continuity in existing installations. Like many molded case circuit breakers used in commercial and industrial service, it is built to last when properly installed, operated, and maintained.
