Eaton - Cutler Hammer - Westinghouse - 5 Star Series - Breaker MCC Bucket - 250 A, 240 V, 12" Height, 3 P | AmpState

Designed for rugged industrial motor control environments, the Eaton - Cutler Hammer - Westinghouse 5 Star Series Breaker MCC Bucket delivers reliable 250 A, 240 V, 3-Pole protection in a compact 12" module. This bucket is engineered as a direct replacement or retrofit for 5 Star Series MCC lineups, enabling fast upgrades and maintenance without the need for major enclosure modifications.

What makes this MCC bucket stand out

• Direct compatibility with 5 Star Series MCCs — drop into existing frames and maintain consistent bus alignment and mounting patterns for a smooth swap.
• 3-Pole, 250 A at 240 V — ideal for reliable protection and switching of standard 3-phase motors and heavy-duty equipment in manufacturing, pumping, and processing settings.
• 12" bucket height — aligned with common MCC module dimensions to preserve stack height and enclosure harmony, reducing installation time.
• Retrofit-ready or replacement — designed to replace aging buckets or retrofit legacy configurations from Eaton, Cutler Hammer, or Westinghouse lines, helping extend the life of existing MCC assets.
• Support and accessibility — AmpState provides global delivery and technical support to keep projects moving and to assist with compatibility checks and installation guidance.

Ideal use cases

• Upgrading aging motor control centers in industrial facilities that run heavy machinery, conveyors, pumps, or compressors requiring 250 A, 240 V, 3-Pole protection.
• Spare-part strategy for plants with 5 Star Series infrastructure to minimize downtime when a bucket is out for maintenance or replacement.
• Retrofit projects to modernize protection schemes while preserving existing buswork and enclosure layout, avoiding costly redesigns.
