HMCP400Y5C - 400Amp Motor Circuit Protector Description

HMCP400Y5C - 400Amp Motor Circuit Protector

When you're replacing a motor circuit protector, getting the details right matters. The Eaton HMCP400Y5C is a 400A, three-pole motor circuit protector from the Series C family, designed around a Frame J-K configuration. It has a 2250–4500A magnetic trip range and is rated for a maximum of 600V AC or 250V DC. Line and load terminals are included, with non-aluminum terminal material specified by the manufacturer.

Key Features and Benefits

  • 400A rating: Intended for compatible motor protection applications requiring a 400-amp device.
  • Three-pole design: Matches installations calling for a three-pole motor circuit protector.
  • Frame J-K: An important detail when checking physical and equipment compatibility.
  • 2250–4500A magnetic trip range: Provides the manufacturer's specified magnetic trip range for the application.
  • Series C: Designed as part of Eaton's Series C product family.
  • 600V AC / 250V DC maximum rating: Suitable for applications operating within these specified voltage limits.
  • Line and load terminals: Provides the terminal arrangement specified for this model.
  • Non-aluminum terminal material: Another useful specification to check when matching an existing component.

Material Compliance and Certifications

The HMCP400Y5C is UL Listed and CSA Certified. Eaton identifies additional compliance information for this model as “Contact Manufacturer.” If your installation has specific regulatory, environmental, or material requirements, those requirements should be confirmed before installation.

Where It Works Best

The Eaton HMCP400Y5C is intended for compatible motor protection applications that require its particular combination of ratings and dimensions. It's especially relevant for maintenance and replacement work in existing commercial or industrial electrical equipment where a 400A, three-pole, Frame J-K Series C motor circuit protector with a 2250–4500A magnetic trip range is specified.

For replacement applications, the smartest approach is simple: match the part, then match the specifications. Confirm HMCP400Y5C against the existing device, but also check the 400A rating, three-pole configuration, Frame J-K designation, voltage rating, magnetic trip range, terminals, and physical dimensions. That gives the installer a much clearer picture of whether the component is the right form, fit, and functional match for the equipment.
