NOTES:
(1) DC ratings apply to substantially non-inductive circuits. Time constants per UL 489.
(2) EGEDC through HMDLDC have been tested up to 300 Vdc to allow for battery charging voltages. 750 Vdc is common in transportation applications. HFDDC, four-pole 750 Vdc is available up to 150A maximum. 300 Vdc and 750 Vdc are not UL 489 listed voltage ratings.
(3) Four-pole frame with two-poles connected in parallel.
