Cutler-Hammer CA2150 - 150A, 2-Pole, Circuit Breaker

The Cutler-Hammer CA2150 delivers rugged, dependable overcurrent protection for demanding electrical systems. With a 150A rating and a compact 2-pole design, this circuit breaker is built to safeguard both feeders and motor circuits in heavy-duty environments—from industrial panelboards to switchboards and control panels.

• Current rating: 150A
• Poles: 2-Pole
• Type: Circuit Breaker

What sets the CA2150 apart is its dual-pole configuration that disconnects both hot lines together on a fault. This simultaneous trip minimizes arcing exposure, protects equipment downstream, and simplifies coordination in dual-leg circuits common in motor control centers, distribution panels, and complex panel architectures.

Ideal for a broad range of applications, this breaker shines in:

• Industrial facilities with large motor loads and high inrush currents
• Commercial installations where reliable branch-circuit protection is essential
• OEM assemblies requiring dependable, field-proven overcurrent protection

In practice, the CA2150 helps you keep critical systems—conveyors, pumps, compressors, and other motors—protected from overloads and short circuits, while enabling safe, quick isolation for service and maintenance. It’S a practical choice when you need robust, straightforward protection that fits standard panelboard, switchboard, and control-panel configurations.

Key benefits at a glance:

• Balanced protection for dual-conductor circuits with coordinated tripping
• Strong suitability for distribution panels and motor control centers
• Clear, reliable protection in industrial, commercial, and OEM contexts

Installation and care notes: ensure compatibility with your panel’s rating and environmental requirements, follow standard electrical practices for mounting and wiring, and verify terminals and connections are properly secured to maintain optimal performance over time.
