8538SBG13V02S

The 8538SBG13V02S is a Type S, -pole non-reversing combination starter from Schneider Electric's Square D line, combining a fusible disconnect switch, a motor starter, and a thermal overload relay in a single NEMA 1 enclosure. Rated at up to , it's built for Size 0 motor applications up to 5HP, giving installers a compact, self-contained solution for motor disconnect, starting, and overload protection in one unit. Its painted sheet steel NEMA 1 housing suits indoor industrial and commercial installations where an integrated, code-compliant starter package simplifies both wiring and maintenance. Electrically, the 8538SBG13V02S includes a 30A fusible disconnect switch (Class H fuse clips) for branch-circuit protection ahead of the starter, along with a three-pole melting-alloy overload relay that provides reliable, field-proven thermal protection against sustained motor overloads. The starter's coil operates on 120VAC control voltage, supplied through a separate -rated control circuit, keeping control wiring isolated from the main power circuit. This combination of thermal overload protection and fusible short-circuit protection gives the 8538SBG13V02S dependable motor protection in a single device. Mechanically, the 8538SBG13V02S features an external reset for the overload relay, allowing a tripped starter to be reset from outside the enclosure without opening the door. It ships without pre-installed control units, giving installers the flexibility to add pushbuttons, selector switches, or pilot lights to match the specific application. Its non-reversing, 3-pole configuration makes it well suited for standard motor control applications where directional reversing isn't required.
