DK2400Y - 400Amp Circuit Breaker Description
DK2400Y - 400Amp Circuit Breaker
When a critical piece of electrical equipment needs a replacement breaker, matching the original specifications matters. The Eaton DK2400Y is a 400 Amp, 2-pole molded case circuit breaker from the trusted Series C K-Frame family, designed to provide the overcurrent protection required in many commercial and industrial power distribution systems.
Whether you're maintaining an existing facility, replacing a failed breaker, or supporting a scheduled shutdown project, the DK2400Y offers the ratings and configuration needed for many legacy installations. Featuring a T186 thermal magnetic trip unit, this breaker helps protect electrical equipment and conductors from overloads and short circuits while maintaining compatibility with systems originally designed around Eaton's Series C platform.
Built for demanding commercial and industrial environments, the DK2400Y is commonly found protecting feeder circuits, distribution equipment, and large electrical loads in manufacturing plants, institutional facilities, office buildings, and infrastructure projects. Its K-Frame design, line-side terminal configuration, and established Series C construction make it a practical solution for maintaining the original design and operating characteristics of existing electrical systems.
