Drawout, electrically operated, in metal-clad switchgear. Older utility and industrial metal-clad switchgear. Westinghouse built them; Eaton owns the line now.
| Type | Medium voltage magnetic air circuit breakers |
|---|---|
| Type designations | 50DHP, 75DHP, 150DHP, DHP |
| Voltage | 5 to 15kV classes |
| Amperage | 1200 and 2000A |
| Poles | 3 |

Voltage class times ten, then DHP, then the MVA interrupting class.
- Original DHP units sell as spares to sites still running DHP lineups.
- Arc chutes, contacts, and the operating mechanism decide the number. A complete, clean breaker is worth far more than a parts unit.
- We do not publish prices. Metal, demand, and condition move them. You get a written number for your units.
Air magnetic breakers like DHP are heavy, and the arc chutes are fragile. Do not stack them or move them without the proper lift truck. A cracked arc chute turns a spare into a parts unit.
Three photos price a medium voltage breaker.
The nameplate
Type, kV, continuous amps, interrupting rating, and control voltage. Straight on and readable.
The front and mechanism
The breaker front, the operation counter, and the charging motor or handle.
In the lineup
The breaker in its cubicle or on the floor, plus the switchgear nameplate if the gear is coming out too.
- 01Send the nameplates

- 02We read them and reply
During business hours, by text, call, or email.
- 03You get a written offer
Per breaker or for the lineup, with the removal plan included. Subject to inspection.
- 04We rack out, rig, and haul
Our crew and equipment, after your people de-energize and lock out. Wire or ACH within 3 business days of a passed inspection.
Selling Westinghouse DHP magnetic air breakers: what people ask.
Often, yes. Plants and utilities still running DHP switchgear need spares, and new ones are not made.
Yes. Units that will not go back into service still have value in mechanisms, contacts, and arc chutes.
Yes. Breakers usually sell better with the lineup they came from, and we can take the whole thing out.
We do. Medium voltage breakers are heavy and the mechanisms are not forgiving; our crew brings the lift truck and rigging. You de-energize and lock out.
