Product FAQs
5 answersCan I install the EC2015 in a standard residential load center?
No, the EC2015 is a commercial molded case circuit breaker designed exclusively for Cutler-Hammer Type EC panelboards. It utilizes a bolt-on connection and will not fit in standard plug-on residential load centers.
What is the modern replacement for the legacy EC2015 breaker?
The EC2015 is part of the legacy Westinghouse E-Frame series. For a direct modern equivalent, it is seamlessly replaced by the Eaton EHD2015 molded case circuit breaker.
What wire sizes and materials are supported by the EC2015 terminals?
The factory-installed lugs accommodate wire sizes ranging from 14 AWG up to 1/0 AWG. The terminals are rated for use with both copper and aluminum conductors.
What type of protection does the LI trip function provide?
The LI designation indicates fixed thermal and fixed magnetic protection. The thermal element provides Long-Time protection against sustained overloads, while the magnetic element provides Instantaneous protection to trip the breaker immediately during a short circuit event.
What are the safety considerations when mounting the EC2015?
The EC2015 is a bolt-on breaker that secures directly to the panelboard busbar, providing a reliable connection for commercial environments. Always ensure the panelboard is completely de-energized and follow proper lockout and tagout procedures before bolting the breaker into place.
