Key specifications

• Amperage: 1200A
• Poles: 2‑Pole
• Series: MHP (Molded Case Circuit Breaker)
• Part number: MHP261200V

Why a 2-pole, 1200A breaker matters

The two-pole design enables simultaneous disconnection of both hot conductors, simplifying safe shutdown and enhancing protection for large motor circuits and high‑current feeders. This configuration is ideal when you need coordinated isolation across two lines, reducing the risk of arc exposure and improving system reliability in demanding environments.

Ideal use cases

• Maintenance, retrofit, and replacement in industrial control panels and switchgear
• Feeding heavy loads like large motors, compressors, and HVAC equipment
• Panel upgrades and service entrances where a robust, high-current 2-pole solution is required

Installation and compatibility tips

To minimize compatibility risk, match the MHP261200V to your existing Square D panel family and bus configuration. Always verify panel model, bus type, and current rating before ordering. If you’re replacing an existing MHP device, using the exact part number is the simplest path to a correct match and reliable performance.
