Eaton HRGCC1S – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Eaton HRGCC1S handle mechanism work on a G-Frame breaker?
Yes. The HRGCC1S direct (close-coupled) handle mechanism is suitable for use on two- or three-pole G-Frame breakers, and is used with GD- and GHC-Frame units in the Frame J-K size. If your breaker is a single-pole G-Frame or a different frame class entirely, this is not the right operating handle.
2) How much room do I need inside the panelboard enclosure for the Eaton HRGCC1S handle mechanism?
Plan on a 6 in wide x 5 in deep x 3 in high envelope for the mechanism itself. That is the space it occupies once close-coupled to the breaker, so check your gutter and door clearance in tight panelboard or switchgear enclosures before you commit.
3) Can I add the Eaton HRGCC1S handle to breakers already installed in an existing panelboard?
Yes, provided the installed breakers are two- or three-pole G-Frame units in the GD- or GHC-Frame, Frame J-K range. The mechanism is a Series C accessory intended for direct mounting to the breaker, which is exactly how retrofit and accessory upgrade work is done on existing molded case installations. Verify the frame designation on the breaker label rather than going by ampere rating alone, since frame class is what governs fit.
4) What is the difference between a direct close-coupled handle mechanism and a cable or rotary operator for a molded case breaker?
A direct (close-coupled) mechanism like the Eaton HRGCC1S mounts straight onto the breaker, so the handle sits immediately over the breaker position. There is no flexible cable or extension shaft between the handle and the breaker, which keeps the assembly compact but means the handle location is fixed by where the breaker sits. If you need the operating handle somewhere other than directly in front of the breaker, or on a remote door, a close-coupled mechanism is the wrong choice and you want a cable-operated or through-the-door remote operator instead.
5) Does the Eaton HRGCC1S come with the shroud, or do I order that separately?
The shroud is included. The HRGCC1S ships in the with-shroud configuration, so you get the handle mechanism plus the protective shroud around it in one part number. No separate shroud order is needed.
6) What exact part number do I order for the Eaton Series C direct handle mechanism with shroud?
Order Eaton HRGCC1S. That single part number covers the direct (close-coupled) handle mechanism with black handle and shroud for Frame J-K, GD- and GHC-Frame breakers. There are no finish or size options to specify with it.
7) What color is the handle on the Eaton Series C HRGCC1S operating mechanism?
Black. Both the handle and the mechanism body are black, which is the standard non-emergency color for a breaker operator. If your facility standard calls for a red handle on a yellow plate for emergency disconnect duty, this part will not satisfy that marking requirement.
