The Eaton RGC316033E is a high-capacity, 3-pole molded case circuit breaker engineered for dependable branch circuit protection in panelboards and loadcenters. Rated at 1600 A and 600 V, this unit is built to manage demanding current levels while fitting neatly into compact panel layouts. Available through AmpState, it brings proven Eaton reliability to residential, commercial, and light industrial electrical installations.

Why this breaker stands out

• Space-efficient molded case design: Its compact footprint maximizes panel density, leaving room for future circuits and easier wiring routing.
• Thermal-magnetic trip unit: Delivers stable, repeatable protection by combining a thermal element for gradual overcurrent with a magnetic mechanism that responds quickly to short circuits, reducing nuisance trips and improving panel uptime.
• OEM panel compatibility: Specifically engineered to pair with matching Eaton loadcenters and panelboards, ensuring consistent fit, mounting, and trip characteristics across your distribution system.
• Robust current and voltage ratings: 1600 A at 600 V makes it well-suited for larger branch circuits and feeders in diverse environments.

Ideal applications

• Residential subpanels and large distribution panels requiring reliable overcurrent protection
• Commercial electrical rooms with mid-to-high current branch circuits
• Light industrial panelboards where compact design and durable protection are critical

What you gain with the RGC316033E

• Reliability under demanding conditions: The thermal-magnetic mechanism maintains protective accuracy across typical temperature and load fluctuations.
• Consistent protection across all poles: A common-trip behavior ensures simultaneous disconnection of all poles during a fault, preserving system safety.
• Long-term panel efficiency: By saving panel space and delivering predictable trip performance, maintenance cycles are simplified and downtime is minimized.
