Eaton DG222NRB - 60A, 240V, 1-Phase, Fusible, Switch, NEMA 3R

The Eaton DG222NRB is a robust, purpose-built fusible switch that delivers reliable on/off isolation with integrated overcurrent protection for demanding industrial and commercial environments. At 60A and 240V, this 1-phase unit is engineered to keep motors and feeders safe, while simplifying maintenance and enclosure layouts with its compact, maintainable design.

• Integrated protection and isolation—a single fusible switch that provides both disconnect capability and overcurrent protection, reducing the need for separate protective devices and wiring complexity.
• NEMA 3R outdoor-rated enclosure—built to withstand rain, dust, and exposure, making it suitable for outdoor equipment, weather-exposed panels, and harsh job sites.
• Ideal for motor disconnects, panelboards, and branch circuits—a practical choice when you need fast, dependable isolation and protection for motors and feeders in a compact footprint.
• Compact, maintainable design—engineered for straightforward fuse replacements and servicing, minimizing downtime and keeping your electrical heavy lifting efficient.
• Performance tailored to mid-sized systems—60A at 240V, 1-Phase configuration provides the right balance of protection and power for a wide range of commercial and light industrial applications.

Who benefits most—facilities managers, electrical contractors, panel builders, and maintenance teams working with outdoor equipment, motor-driven loads, or any installation needing a reliable, easily serviceable fusible switch with in-line protection.

• Use cases: outdoor motor disconnects for pumps or fans, feeder protection for small to mid-sized panelboards, and branch-circuit protection where a compact, easy-to-service fusible switch is preferred.
• Why choose this over standalone devices—it consolidates disconnect functionality and overcurrent protection in one enclosure, reducing parts, wiring complexity, and service steps while maintaining clear isolation points for safe maintenance.
• Installation mindset—plan for outdoor routing, ensure accessible operation, and confirm that the fuse sizing aligns with the motor or load’s full-load current to optimize protection and performance.

Practical tips for getting the most from your DG222NRB

• Match fuse amperage to the protected load’s full-load current and start-up characteristics to balance protection and nuisance tripping.
• Ensure the enclosure remains accessible and free from obstructions to maintain the NEMA 3R protection and allow safe operation.
• Schedule regular inspections of fuses and switch contacts as part of a preventive maintenance routine to prevent unexpected downtime.
