Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the APL1-1-61-203 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

  • Breaker Type: Magnetic (Hydraulic Delay) protection mechanism
  • Current Rating: 20A nominal trip current
  • Voltage Rating - AC: 277V minimum
  • Number of Poles: Single-pole configuration
  • Actuator Type: Lever manual operation
  • Mounting Type: Panel mount form factor

The W91-X1110-20 meets all these criteria and qualifies as a direct substitute. Both components share identical electrical protection characteristics, mechanical interface requirements, and operational specifications necessary for drop-in replacement in existing installations.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the W91-X1110-20 replace the APL1-1-61-203 in existing installations?

A: Yes. Both components are single-pole, 20A, 277V AC circuit breakers with magnetic-hydraulic delay protection and lever actuation. The identical electrical and mechanical specifications support direct substitution without circuit redesign or panel modification.

Q: What is the significance of the obsolete status for APL1-1-61-203?

A: Obsolete status indicates the manufacturer no longer produces this part. The W91-X1110-20 provides functional continuity for maintenance, repair, and replacement applications where the original part is no longer available.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: The APL1-1-61-203 is listed with unspecified packaging, while the W91-X1110-20 is supplied in bulk packaging. Both are suitable for panel mount installation; packaging differences do not affect electrical or mechanical performance.

Q: How do the compliance certifications compare?

A: Both parts share EAR99 ECCN and 8536.20.0020 HTSUS classifications. The W91-X1110-20 carries RoHS Compliant certification, indicating compliance with current environmental regulations for restricted substances.

Q: Are the voltage ratings identical?

A: The APL1-1-61-203 is rated for 277V AC and 65V DC. The W91-X1110-20 is rated for 277V AC. For applications requiring DC operation at 65V, verify the W91-X1110-20 DC rating against your specific system requirements.
