B-LINE CKD3250T56W – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Does the Eaton CKD3250T56W breaker come with lugs or terminals?
No. The CKD3250T56W ships without terminals, so you have to order the K-frame terminal lugs or connectors separately to land your conductors. Budget for those on the same order or the breaker cannot be wired in.
2) What is the interrupting rating on this 250A K-frame Eaton breaker at 480 and 600 volts?
35 kAIC at 480 Vac and 25 kAIC at 600 Vac. If your available fault current at the point of installation exceeds those figures, this breaker is not the right device for that location.
3) Will this breaker work on a 600 volt three-phase system, and can it be used on DC?
Three-pole and rated 600 Vac, so it suits 480Y/277 and 600 V three-phase distribution, and it is also rated 250 Vdc for DC applications. Frequency rating is 50-60 Hz.
4) What does the LSIG trip unit on this Eaton Series C breaker actually give me?
The OPTIM 550 electronic trip unit provides long-time, short-time, instantaneous, and ground fault protection (LSIG). That means adjustable pickup and delay bands you can set to coordinate selectively with upstream and downstream devices, plus integral ground fault protection, which a thermal-magnetic breaker of the same frame cannot do.
5) Is the CKD3250T56W a complete breaker or just a trip unit replacement?
It is a complete breaker, K-frame CKD type with the OPTIM 550 trip unit installed. You are not buying a bare frame or a standalone trip unit, so it drops in as a whole device.
6) How much space and weight do I need to allow for this K-frame breaker in a panel or enclosure?
The breaker measures 5.5 inches high, 5.5 inches wide, and 6 inches deep, and weighs 11.95 lb. Plan gutter space and mounting support accordingly, and remember terminals are not included, so lug projection adds to the depth you need behind the cover.
7) I need ground fault protection on a 250A feeder. Do I add a separate GFP relay?
Not with this device. The ground fault function is built into the OPTIM 550 electronic trip unit as part of its LSIG protection, so a separate ground fault relay and sensor are not required for the breaker itself.
