Cutler-Hammer AN16SN0 Three-Phase Motor Starter

AN16SN0 Cutler-Hammer three-phase motor starter is a dedicated control device for starting and stopping a three-phase motor in electrical installations. It is rated for 600V and 270A and configured as a 3-pole unit, enabling all three supply lines to be switched in unison. This model sits in Cutler-Hammer's motor-control lineup and is chosen when a single, purpose-built starter is needed to manage a motor operating at up to 600 volts and up to 270 amperes. The 3-pole configuration supports standard three-phase circuits, supporting reliable on/off operation within a control system. In practical terms, the AN16SN0 defines the core electrical characteristics a panel designer or electrician would reference when selecting a starter for a motor whose full-load current does not exceed 270A at up to 600V. Use of this starter facilitates straightforward motor control within appropriate electrical enclosures and wiring schemes, aligning with typical three-phase motor applications that require simple, robust line switching.
