Power Distribution Equipment

The UL/CSA overload rating of the circuit breaker often goes unnoticed by the designer. Since plug strips are required to power a variety of devices, the circuit breaker in a plug strip should carry an OL1 (Motor Start) rating, not an OL0 resistive rating.

MP’s switchable Series 24 is often selected for rack mount applications. It’s snap-in panel design is available with a light option in one and two pole packages from 0.1 to 30 amps.

MP’s engineering staff has worked with many customers to develop specially calibrated devices derived from an MP core product.

Throughout the years, MP has worked closely with many OEMs to develop new circuit breakers to meet the unique challenges of their application. Our technical staff is always available to provide assistance.
