CA2150X - 150Amp Circuit Breaker

CA2150X - 150 Amp Circuit Breaker

The CA2150X circuit breaker is a 2-pole, 150 amp molded case circuit breaker designed for dependable overcurrent protection in 120/240VAC electrical distribution systems. Built on a CA frame with a non-interchangeable trip unit, this breaker is engineered for consistent operation at 40°C and is commonly used in commercial and industrial panelboards where maintaining proper form, fit, and function is critical. With a 10k A.I.C. rating at 120/240VAC, the CA2150X is intended to interrupt fault currents within its specified capacity, helping protect conductors and connected equipment from overloads and short circuits.

This model includes load-side lugs for straightforward installation and secure terminations. Its molded case construction is built to last and designed to meet the demands of legacy electrical systems that require specific frame compatibility and ampere ratings. If you’re maintaining or servicing existing distribution equipment that calls for a CA frame, 150A, 2-pole breaker, the CA2150X provides the correct electrical and mechanical alignment required for safe operation.
