IELK1-1REC4R-31793-50

Circuit breakers are devices that prevent electrical circuits from sustaining damage due to overloads and short circuits. They are used to protect electrical systems and components from potential damage, and to prevent electrical shock. The IELK1-1REC4R-31793-50 is a type of circuit breaker designed for use in both residential and commercial applications.

The IELK1-1REC4R-31793-50 is a dual-type circuit breaker that provides protection against both overloading and short-circuiting. It is a three-pole breaker with a rating of 50 amps and operates at 120/240 volts. The breaker is UL listed and is approved for use with both Eaton and Westinghouse panel enclosures. It is suitable for use in a variety of applications where power is needed, such as heating and air conditioning systems, motors and pumps, kitchens, dryers and washers, ovens, and other general-purpose loads.

The IELK1-1REC4R-31793-50 is designed to detect any excessive current flow in a circuit and de-energize the circuit immediately to prevent damage. This is accomplished by means of a thermally activated current sensing system. When a certain current is exceeded, the temperature of the breaker increases, and a bi-metallic heat-sensitive element triggers the breaker to trip. The breaker must then be reset manually. After resetting, the breaker will return to its normal state and reset itself when the current is within the allowable range.

The IELK1-1REC4R-31793-50 can be used in a variety of applications, including residential, commercial and industrial. It is suitable for use in areas where surge protection is needed, such as high-temperature areas or areas where moisture may be present. Additionally, the breaker has a stability feature that prevents the breaker from tripping due to high inrush currents from motors or other components, ensuring continued operation of the circuit. The IELK1-1REC4R-31793-50 is designed for long life and features a built-in indicator light to let you know when the breaker has tripped, so you don\'t have to test it to find out.

In conclusion, the IELK1-1REC4R-31793-50 is a circuit breaker designed for residential, commercial, and industrial applications. It is capable of providing reliable protection against overloading and short circuits, and has a built-in indicator to let you know if it trips. It is UL listed and approved for use with both Eaton and Westinghouse panel enclosures. If you\'re looking for a reliable and easy-to-install circuit breaker, the IELK1-1REC4R-31793-50 is a great option.
