The shaded areas denote CCC (if applicable) and CE compliant options.
The V will be added to any part number formed entirely from shaded decisions.
If non-shaded areas are selected, the unit will not be approved, nor CE
compliant, but other approvals still apply.  20 amps max rating on units.

Frequency & Delay
The coding given permits 
a self-assigning part 
number, with certain 
limitations (due to the 
adaptability of magnetic 
protectors to complex 
circuits), requires a 
factory-assigned part 
number. 
 
The example shown is the 
code for a paddle handle, 
single pole (UL 
construction), series  
circuit protector designed 
for operation of a 50/60Hz/
DC circuit. A slow time 
delay and rating of 5 
amperes has been 
indicated. Handle color is 
black, and a bright nickel 
knurled nut, vertical mount 
(ON-OFF) indicator plate 
and locking ring are to be 
supplied. 
 
To determine the ordering 
code for your particular 
SNAPAK® unit, simply 
follow the steps shown, 
then fill in the letters and/
or numbers in the boxes. 
Space is available on the 
circuit breaker label for 
your part number (up to 12 
digits). You may then use 
your own part number to 
place an order or as a 
reference for further 
questions you may have. 
This option does require a 
factory assigned part 
number for traceability to 
your drawing or internal 
part number.
Notes: 
A    A neon bulb is provided when specified for 120Vac and 250Vac operation. For operation 
at 120Vac a 33,000 ohm, 1/2 watt external resistor is required. At 250Vac a 100,000 
ohm, 1 watt external resistor is required.
B    An LED with 750 ft. L @ 20mA is provided in the center of the handle. Maximum power 
dissipation @ 25°C is 135mW. Continuous forward current is 20mA. Forward voltage, 
typical, is 1.6v at 20mA. Reverse current, typical, is 100mA @ 3.0 volts. An external 
resistor may be required to limit current to these values.
 
C   When ordering Paddle Handles, you may choose one item from each hardware group to add to 5th 
decision if such items are desired. For example, “-11ALCA” would indicate a bright nickel knurled nut, 
plus a vertical mount indicator, plus a locking ring, plus #8-32 screw terminal, straight with tabs.
D   All units except Rocker units will have (1) hex nut installed as standard hardware for the back of a 
panel. The choices in the fifth decision table are intended for the front or visible side of the panel and 
are offered for Paddle Handle configuration only. Push-Pull and Push-to-Reset configurations include 
one (1) panel nut and one (1) hex nut as standard hardware.
E  Switch only — no current overload protection provided. 
 
F.  CCC Approval - If CCC is required on this product, please inform Sensata to have this product 
  manufacturered in our China facility
