Navy Circuit Breakers

These molded case Navy circuit breakers provide both overload protection for conductors and short circuit protection for all circuit elements such as conductors, motors and starters. They also serve as manual disconnecting means as well as circuit protectors. All Eaton Cutler-Hammer’s circuit breakers meet applicable Navy specifications for “hi-shock.” These manually or electrically operated breakers are rated from 5 to 4,000 amperes with interrupting ratings from 1,500 to 150,000 amperes.

Eaton Navy Breakers are designed and tested to either Mil-C-17588, Mil-C-17361, or Mil-C-17587 plus the corresponding QPLs. Eaton also, working in conjunction with OEM Alliance Partners, has helped to design and test new mil-spec high shock low voltage power breakers based upon the Magnum Insulated Case Breaker, and medium voltage power breakers based upon 5KV/15KV vacuum power breakers. Eaton designs and manufactures highly reliable Navy Breakers that enhance shipboard electrical system survivability, which is directly proportional to survivability of the ship’s mission.
