Mars mars-83227 Circuit Breaker 120/240V 50A 2 Pole

Product Description

The MARS mars-83227 is a plug-in I-T-E style circuit breaker rated for 120/240 VAC operation at 50 amps across 2 poles. It is designed to provide overcurrent protection in residential and light commercial electrical panels, interrupting fault current up to 10,000 kA AC. Licensed electricians install this breaker as a direct plug-in replacement in compatible load centers and distribution panels. The 2-pole configuration makes it suitable for protecting 240-volt branch circuits such as HVAC equipment, water heaters, and other double-pole loads.

This breaker fits applications where an I-T-E plug-in style breaker is specified. Common install scenarios include service panel upgrades, branch circuit additions, and replacement of failed or tripped breakers in existing residential and light commercial electrical systems. It is distributed under the MARS brand as a Siemens/Furnas compatible part, making it a practical replacement option in panels that accept I-T-E plug-in style breakers.
