As a panelbuilder, you are very familiar with blade or glass fuses as popular forms of circuit protection. Both types are inexpensive and easy to install in a control panel, however, these solutions have their drawbacks. When a fuse blows, it must be replaced. Costs arising from equipment damage or stoppage while searching for the correct replacement fuse can be expensive.
The new X1180 kit pairs E-T-A’s 1180 circuit breaker with the cost-effective 10Plus terminal block and:
- Improves control panel protection with a minimal increase in investment compared to fuses
- Reduces downtime costs by immediately resetting the circuit breaker
- Physically isolates and disconnects circuits during maintenance, without having to remove anything
- Provides an immediate indication of a faulty circuit via LED – making it easy to identify in a dark control cabinet
