Providing essential overcurrent safety, the Federal Pacific NEF214080 is an 80-amp, single-pole MCCB. It features fixed thermal and magnetic trip elements for consistent performance in commercial environments. This legacy component is engineered to keep older infrastructure operational. The bolt-on configuration matches the dimensions required to mount into original Federal Pacific NEF panelboards, eliminating retrofits.
Will this breaker fit in a standard Federal Pacific Stab-Lok residential panel?
No. The NEF214080 is a commercial molded case circuit breaker designed specifically for Federal Pacific NEF panelboards. It will not fit in Stab-Lok load centers.
How does this breaker mount into the panelboard?
The NEF214080 features a bolt-on connection, which provides a secure, vibration-resistant installation in commercial and industrial Federal Pacific enclosures.
What is the maximum interrupting capacity for this breaker on 120V systems?
While it is rated 14kAIC at 277VAC, the interrupting capacity increases to 25kAIC when installed in 120VAC single-phase applications.
Can the NEF214080 be used in DC electrical systems?
Yes, this breaker is rated for DC applications, providing an interrupting capacity of 10kAIC at 125VDC.
What wire sizes are accepted by the lugs on this breaker?
The load side lugs on the NEF214080 accept wire ranging from 4 AWG to 1/0 AWG. Ensure proper torque specifications are followed during installation to prevent loose connections.
How does the NEF214080 protect against electrical faults?
It utilizes a fixed thermal-magnetic trip unit. The thermal element responds to prolonged overloads, while the magnetic instantaneous element quickly clears severe short circuits.
Is the NEF214080 a direct replacement for older Federal Pacific N-frame breakers?
Yes, it serves as an exact physical and electrical replacement for 80-amp, 1-pole Federal Pacific NEF breakers, allowing facilities to maintain existing infrastructure without a complete panelboard retrofit.

Great service & pricing
Superbreakers did a great job for us. We called and asked if the breakers were actually in their possession. Withing 30 minutes they called us back (which is rare these days), and we got our breakers the next morning.
