951832 - ESAB 3-Pole Circuit Breaker 50A 480V Replacement Part

Reliable Circuit Protection for Industrial Welding Systems

The ESAB 951832 Circuit Breaker is a critical component designed to safeguard high-performance welding power sources and industrial machinery. Engineered to handle the rigorous demands of heavy-duty welding environments, this circuit breaker provides essential protection against electrical overloads and short circuits. With a current rating of 50 Amps and a voltage capacity of 480 Volts, it is specifically built to manage the power requirements of substantial three-phase equipment.

In industrial settings, the integrity of your power distribution system is paramount. A faulty or undersized breaker can lead to nuisance tripping, equipment damage, or significant safety hazards. This 3-Pole (3P) breaker ensures that all three phases of power are interrupted simultaneously in the event of a fault, preventing single-phasing conditions that can burn out motors and sensitive electronic components within your welding machine. The unit features a robust thermal-magnetic trip mechanism that responds quickly to dangerous surges while allowing for the temporary inrush currents typical of welding operations.

As a genuine ESAB OEM replacement part, the 951832 guarantees perfect compatibility with specific ESAB power sources. Using non-OEM breakers can be risky, as generic alternatives may not match the specific trip curves or physical mounting dimensions required by your machine. This breaker is designed for seamless integration, ensuring that your equipment maintains its original safety certifications and operational reliability. Whether you are performing maintenance on a production line welder or repairing a standalone power source, this component is essential for restoring full functionality and safety compliance.

Installation should always be performed by a qualified electrician or certified welding equipment repair technician to ensure proper connection and safety. By choosing the correct specification—50A, 480V, 3-Pole—you ensure that your welding operations continue to run smoothly without the risk of electrical failure. Invest in the longevity of your equipment with this high-quality, industrial-grade circuit breaker.
