The dedicated circuit breaker should be sized so the rated current and the trip delay is higher and
longer than the MGX 8220 circuit breaker. A 20A, 2-pole AC circuit breaker with a long trip
delay is recommended.
For information purposes, the MGX 8220 shelf uses a 20A, 2-pole AC circuit breaker on each
AC input. The circuit breaker manufacturer is ETA (part number 8340-F120-P1P2-B2H020A).
Cooling

is operating (recommended range is 20
°C to 30°C). A fully loaded MGX 8220 shelf may dissipate
up to 2400 BTUs.
