The Industrial MP230EG 30A 2-Pole 240 V Circuit Breaker is purpose-built for demanding electrical environments where dependable protection and clear, fast disconnection matter. With a 30-amp current rating spread across two poles and a 240-volt nominal rating, this breaker delivers robust protection for essential 240V circuits while helping keep equipment and wiring safe from overloads and faults. The model is identified by Part Number MP230EG, ensuring precise replacement and seamless integration into established protection schemes. In setups that rely on metering or protection coordination with potential transformers, this breaker fits neatly into those protection strategies without compromising performance.

Key specifications

• Current rating: 30 A
• Poles: 2
• Voltage rating: 240 V
• Part Number: MP230EG

Why the MP230EG matters in your system

When you’re distributing power at 240V in an industrial setting, a two-pole breaker is essential. It guarantees that both hot legs disconnect together on a fault, reducing the risk of shock, backfeed, or equipment damage. A 30 A rating provides targeted protection for feeders, motors, heating elements, and other loads that stay within a 7.2 kW range at 240V, helping avoid nuisance trips while preserving wiring integrity. This precise specification makes it easier to design safe, code-compliant circuits and simplifies maintenance planning for facilities teams.

Ideal use cases

• Protection for 240V feeders feeding motors, conveyors, pumps, and other industrial equipment
• Main or branch circuit protection in electrical panels and switchgear assemblies
• Heater circuits and process lines where stable, reliable interruption is critical
• Metering and protection configurations that incorporate potential transformers for monitoring

Practical considerations and installation tips

Choose the MP230EG when your application requires a dedicated, two-pole 240V protection device with a clear replacement path (thanks to its defined part number). Ensure wiring and enclosure are sized to handle 30 A and that the breaker type is compatible with your panel or bus system. Always install and service by qualified personnel, follow local electrical codes, and label circuits clearly to reflect the 30 A, 2-pole 240V protection provided by this breaker.

Who should consider this breaker

• Electrical engineers and maintenance managers responsible for industrial panels and feeders
• Facilities teams outfitting or upgrading 240V distribution in manufacturing, warehousing, and processing plants
• Contractors seeking a reliable, clearly identified replacement part for MP230EG installations
