Value Collection BDC21748 25A Type Iii Circuit Breaker

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION BDC21748 is a Type III manual-trip circuit breaker rated at 25 amps with a plug-in mount configuration. Circuit breakers of this type protect electrical circuits from overload and short-circuit conditions by interrupting current flow when a fault is detected. The manual-trip mechanism requires a deliberate reset after tripping, giving the installer or service tech positive confirmation that the fault has been addressed before the circuit is re-energized. This unit is suited for panel or distribution board applications where plug-in breaker slots are available.

This breaker fits residential and light commercial electrical distribution panels that accept Type III plug-in style breakers. It is a single-unit replacement or new-installation component installed by licensed electricians during panel service, circuit additions, or breaker replacement work. The 25-amp rating makes it appropriate for branch circuits serving mid-load equipment, appliances, or dedicated outlets.

Key Features

• 25-amp current rating for branch circuit overload and short-circuit protection
• Type III circuit breaker classification for plug-in panel compatibility
• Manual-trip mechanism requires intentional reset after a fault event
• Plug-in mount design simplifies installation and replacement in compatible panels
• Single-pole, single-unit packaging for straightforward stocking and service use

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation breaker for electrical distribution panels that accept Type III plug-in style circuit breakers.

Installation Notes

Installation must be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and applicable local codes. Always shut off main panel power and verify the bus bar is de-energized with a non-contact voltage tester before handling any breaker. Seat the breaker firmly into the plug-in slot until it clicks securely onto the bus bar. Do not attempt to modify the breaker housing or bypass the trip mechanism.
