Why Choose the Lovato P5X194X2UL Cable Operating Handle?
The Lovato P5X194X2UL is a robust cable operating handle with flange designed for compatible UL-certified Lovato P5 moulded case circuit breakers. As part of the Lovato P5 moulded case circuit breaker accessory range, it enables an internally mounted MCCB to be operated from an external handle using a flexible cable connection.
Designed specifically for P5ME3PH0400UL and P5ME3PH0600UL circuit breakers, the P5X194X2UL uses a rear panel mounting arrangement. The flexible cable mechanism provides greater freedom in positioning the breaker relative to the operating handle than a conventional straight-shaft arrangement, making it particularly useful for industrial switchboard and machinery panel layouts.
The P5X194X2UL provides UL Type 1, 12, 3, 3R and 4 protection and can be combined with dedicated P5X19L series cables in several lengths. This makes it a practical solution for UL-compliant power distribution assemblies requiring convenient external operation of compatible P5 400/600 frame MCCBs.

Flexible External Operation of Moulded Case Circuit Breakers
Cable operating mechanisms enable an MCCB installed inside an enclosure to be controlled from an externally accessible handle. Instead of relying on a straight mechanical shaft, the flexible cable transfers movement between the handle and a mechanism positioned on the front of the circuit breaker, allowing greater flexibility in panel design and breaker placement.
The Lovato P5X194X2UL is designed for compatible 400 and 600 frame UL-certified P5 MCCBs and can be paired with 915 mm, 1219 mm or 1524 mm P5X19L cables. This arrangement is suitable for industrial electrical assemblies designed around UL and NFPA requirements where external breaker operation and flexible component positioning are required.
Typical Applications
- UL-compliant industrial switchboards.
- Power distribution panels.
- Machine control cabinets.
- Industrial automation enclosures.
- Panels requiring flexible cable-operated MCCB control.
- Power distribution assemblies using compatible Lovato P5ME 400/600 UL circuit breakers.
