What drives the number
  • Complete units with both main breakers are worth more than stripped shells.
  • NEMA 4X and copper-wound versions are less common than the standard NEMA 3R aluminum unit.
  • Branch breakers left in the interior add value.
  • Failed units still sell for breakers, enclosure and core and coil.
  • We do not publish prices. Metal, demand, and condition move them. You get a written number for your unit.
From the yard

On the units we checked, the catalog number starts with the same 48 for a 480 V primary used on Eaton general purpose units, 28 marks a 208Y/120 secondary and 11 marks 120/240. T and S separate three-phase from single-phase. The digits after the kVA vary with the interior and options, so match the full number to the nameplate rather than guessing.

Photos we need

Three photos price most Eaton Mini-Power Center offers.

01

The label

The catalog number, straight on and in focus. For a pallet, one label per model plus a count.

02

The unit

Front, sides, and anything damaged. Doors open if it has them.

03

The lot

The whole pallet or shelf. New in box: the box labels.

Nameplate is on the front cover. For a lot, one nameplate photo per model plus a count and a group shot of the pallet does it.
