Eaton 6LES500T – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What does the Eaton 6LES500T rating plug actually do on a breaker?
The 6LES500T is a fixed rating plug that sets the trip rating of an Eaton Series C molded case breaker equipped with a Digitrip RMS 310 electronic trip unit. It establishes the breaker's continuous current rating at 500 A. The trip unit itself does the sensing and timing; the plug is what tells it what amp level to protect at, which is why a frame can be field-set to different ratings just by changing plugs.
2) Will this rating plug fit any Eaton breaker, or only certain ones?
Only Eaton Series C molded case breaker frames fitted with a Digitrip RMS 310 electronic trip unit. It is not a universal accessory. If the breaker carries a different Digitrip trip unit family, or is a thermal-magnetic breaker with no plug socket, the 6LES500T will not apply. Confirm the trip unit is an RMS 310 before ordering.
3) Is the Eaton 6LES500T a fixed plug or can the amp setting be adjusted?
Fixed. The 500 A value is built into the plug, so there is no dial or switch to change it. To protect at a different current level you swap in a different plug from the same family rather than adjusting this one. That is the tradeoff with fixed plugs: the setting can't be tampered with in the field, but each rating is its own part number.
4) Can I use this Eaton plug to re-rate an existing breaker during a retrofit?
That is one of its main uses. Changing the rating plug on a Series C breaker with an RMS 310 trip unit changes the breaker's continuous current setting without replacing the breaker or disturbing the bus connections, which is how these plugs get used on upgrade and maintenance work in commercial and industrial distribution gear. The frame still has to be rated for the current you are setting, so verify the breaker frame size supports 500 A.
5) Can an ABB RMS1 rating plug be used in place of the Eaton 6LES500T rating plug?
No. The 6LES500T is a fixed Digitrip RMS 310 rating plug built specifically for Eaton Series C molded case breaker frames equipped with Digitrip RMS 310 electronic trip units. The ABB SRPE30A20 is an RMS1 series rating plug for the ABB Power Break II SE150 frame. Rating plugs are keyed to the trip unit and frame family they were designed for, so the two are not interchangeable - an Eaton Series C breaker with a Digitrip RMS 310 trip unit takes the Eaton plug, and an SE150 Power Break II frame takes the ABB plug.
6) Does the Eaton Series C rating plug carry a UL listing for use in switchgear and panelboards?
UL Listed, per Eaton's published data for the 6LES500T. That matters for institutional and facility work where the overcurrent device assembly has to remain a listed combination after service. For any specific compliance standard beyond the UL listing, Eaton directs the question to the manufacturer.
7) What part number do I order for the 500 amp Eaton Digitrip RMS 310 rating plug?
Eaton MPN 6LES500T. It is a single-model item, so there are no finish, voltage, or option choices to specify. Quote that number to match the 500 A fixed rating on a Series C Digitrip RMS 310 breaker.
