Westinghouse | MA2500 | Circuit Breaker | 500A | 2-Pole | 600V

The Westinghouse MA2500 Circuit Breaker delivers dependable, professional-grade protection for demanding electrical systems. With a 500-amp rating and 600-volt capacity, this 2-pole breaker is built for high-load feeders and critical circuits, making it an ideal choice for maintenance, retrofit, and replacement projects where exact specifications matter. Use MA2500 when you need a trusted, compatible solution that keeps your panel running safely and reliably.

Key specifications and why they matter

• Amperage: 500 A — protects heavy-duty feeders and large motors, helping prevent overheating and electrical faults while allowing controlled, reliable operation.
• Poles: 2‑Pole — provides simultaneous protection for both conductors with a common trip, enhancing safety in 600V systems.
• Voltage rating: 600 V — suitable for commercial and industrial distribution networks, maintaining appropriate insulation margins for high-energy environments.
• Part number: MA2500 — your best reference for compatibility, matching panels, bus configurations, and replacement fit.
• Application note: Confirm fit and ratings before ordering to ensure seamless retrofit or replacement within your specific panel lineup.

Who is this for?

Ideal for facility maintenance teams, electrical contractors, and system integrators who work with Westinghouse panels or compatible distributions requiring a 500 A, 2-pole, 600 V circuit breaker. It’s especially valuable for retrofit projects or replacements where exact specifications and reliable performance are essential.

Use cases and practical benefits

• Retrofit existing panels with a breaker that matches the original specs, minimizing hardware changes and downtime.
• Protect high-load circuits, such as large motors or feeders, with robust, stable overcurrent protection tuned for 500 A operation.
• Standardize protection across multiple panels by adopting the MA2500 for consistent 600 V, 2-pole protection in demanding environments.

Choosing this vs. alternatives

Designed for direct compatibility with Westinghouse systems and other panels operating under the same 500 A, 2-pole, 600 V criteria, the MA2500 emphasizes precise fit and dependable performance. Rely on the part number MA2500 as the most reliable reference for compatibility to reduce installation guesswork and ensure a secure, code-conscious protection strategy.
