Allen-Bradley 1492-MCGAT115 15A 1P 120V Circuit Breaker, GFCI | AmpState

The Allen-Bradley 1492-MCGAT115 is a purpose-built GFCI circuit breaker designed for reliable circuit protection in panelboards, load centers, and electrical distribution systems. Built for everyday electrical work, this 1-pole, 15 A device keeps critical circuits safe while fitting seamlessly into retrofit projects where maintaining a consistent part number is essential.

Why this GFCI breaker stands out

With its GFCI functionality, the 1492-MCGAT115 provides ground fault protection that helps prevent electrical shocks on outlets and receptacles fed by the protected circuit. This is especially valuable in areas prone to moisture or incidental contact—like kitchens, basements, garages, outdoor circuits, and utility rooms—where safeguarding people and equipment matters most.

• Model and rating: Allen-Bradley 1492-MCGAT115, 1-pole, 15 A, 120 V
• Protection type: Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) for enhanced electrical safety
• Applications: Suitable for panelboards, load centers, and general electrical distribution—ideal for retrofit work and maintenance where part numbers must stay consistent
• Reliability: Trusted Allen-Bradley engineering with a design focused on durability in everyday electrical environments

Practical use cases and scenarios

Consider the 1492-MCGAT115 when you’re wiring circuits that require added protection in damp or high-risk locations. It’s a solid choice for upgrading older installations to current safety standards without changing the existing part number in your bill of materials. Use cases include:

• Retrofit projects in existing panelboards where consistency of parts is important for planning and stocking
• Dedicated circuits for kitchens, laundry rooms, outdoor outlets, basements, and utility spaces
• Maintenance scenarios where quick replacement avoids re-engineering an entire protection scheme
