Eaton HMCP015E0 - 15 A, 600 V, 3-Pole Circuit Breaker | AmpState

Meet the Eaton HMCP015E0—a compact 3-pole molded case circuit breaker engineered for dependable branch circuit protection in panelboards and loadcenters. With a 15‑amp rating and a 600‑volt maximum, this breaker is built to guard circuits against overloads and short circuits across residential, commercial, and light industrial environments. When space in the panel matters, the HMCP015E0 delivers with a thoughtfully designed molded case that fits neatly where you need it most.

Why this breaker stands out

• Space-efficient molded case design minimizes footprint inside panelboards, helping you maximize panel capacity without compromising protection.
• Thermal-magnetic trip unit provides stable, repeatable protection—responding to sustained overloads and sudden short circuits with predictable, reliable performance.
• OEM-ready compatibility designed to work seamlessly with matching Eaton OEM loadcenters and panelboards, simplifying replacements and upgrades.
• Three-pole configuration ideal for 3‑phase applications or mixed-load environments that require coordinated protection across three conductors.

This 15A, 600V HMCP015E0 is purpose-built for real-world scenarios where protecting people and equipment matters as much as saving space. In a residential subpanel, it offers straightforward protection for lighting, outlets, and small circuits. In commercial settings—a small office suite, workshop, or retail space—it provides dependable defense against nuisance trips caused by minor surges while still standing up to short-circuit events. In light industrial applications, it can safeguard motors, controls, and other essential equipment without monopolizing panel real estate.
