What Are MCC Buckets?

An MCC bucket is a modular, self-contained unit that slides into a larger motor control center enclosure. Each bucket houses vital electrical components—such as circuit breakers or fused disconnects, motor starters, overload relays, contactors, and control switches—that allow operators to control and protect a single motor. This design makes MCC buckets a cornerstone of industrial power distribution because they enable centralized management, fast replacement, and simplified maintenance.

By isolating each motor’s control system into its own bucket, operators gain the flexibility to service or upgrade equipment without shutting down the entire MCC, saving time and reducing costly downtime.
