Allen-Bradley 1492-CB2H060 6A 2-Pole 480 V Circuit Breaker

The Allen-Bradley 1492-CB2H060 is a genuine two-pole circuit breaker designed for 480 V industrial circuits, delivering precise protection with a 6 A current rating. Built to integrate seamlessly within the Allen-Bradley 1492 family, this part ensures compatibility and reliable performance in your control panels and power distribution setups.

Core specifications

• Part number: 1492-CB2H060
• Current rating: 6 A
• Poles: 2
• Voltage rating: 480 V

Why it matters

In industrial environments, protecting feeders and control circuits from overloads and short circuits is essential to minimize downtime and equipment damage. The 1492-CB2H060’s 2-pole design ensures both hot lines are disconnected together, delivering reliable protection for 480 V systems and safeguarding motors, sensors, and automation equipment from fault conditions.

Ideal use cases

• Protection for 480 V feeders in manufacturing and processing facilities
• Replacement or upgrade for aging breakers within Allen-Bradley panels that use the 1492 family
• Circuit protection for industrial automation equipment and control panels

How this model stands out

Unlike generic substitutes, the 1492-CB2H060 is purpose-built to align with Allen-Bradley’s 1492-series architecture. Its two-pole construction provides synchronized disconnect of both conductors, promoting safer maintenance and improved fault handling in high-voltage applications.

Practical notes

• Verify that the circuit requirements match a 6 A, 2-pole, 480 V device to ensure proper protection and compatibility.
• Confirm physical form factor and terminal compatibility with your enclosure and bussing before replacement.
• Consult a qualified electrician or the panel manufacturer if you’re integrating this part into an existing 1492-series setup.
