A dependable solution for commercial systems, the Eaton EDS2175 provides 175 amps of continuous current protection. This 2-pole MCCB is designed for demanding environments. Utilizing a bolt-on mounting style, it integrates into Eaton Series C panelboards and switchboards. It replaces older ED2175 models when a 65kAIC rating is not required. The F-Frame breaker delivers 42kAIC at 240VAC via fixed thermal-magnetic trip functions. It is HACR rated and supports reverse feed setups.
What panelboards are compatible with the EDS2175 circuit breaker?
This F-frame Series C breaker is designed for Eaton and Cutler-Hammer Pow-R-Line panelboards, specifically the PRL1a, PRL2a, and PRL3a series. It is also compatible with standard Eaton switchboards and motor control centers.
How does the EDS2175 connect to the panelboard bus?
This is a bolt-on circuit breaker. It bolts directly to the busbar on the line side and uses mechanical lugs on the load side for your wire connections.
What is the difference between the ED2175 and the EDS2175?
The primary difference is the short-circuit interrupting capacity. The EDS2175 has a 42 kAIC rating at 240 Vac, while the standard ED2175 is rated for 65 kAIC at 240 Vac. You must verify the required fault current rating for your specific installation before substituting.
Can the EDS2175 be used in reverse feed applications?
Yes, this breaker is suitable for reverse feed installations. It does not have a designated line or load side restriction, allowing it to be back-fed when required by your system design.
Is the EDS2175 rated for direct current (DC) systems?
Yes, in addition to its AC ratings, this breaker is rated for up to 125 Vdc with a 10 kAIC interrupting capacity. This makes it suitable for specific direct current control and distribution applications.
Does this breaker provide ground fault or equipment protection?
No, the EDS2175 features a standard fixed thermal-magnetic trip unit designed strictly for overload and short-circuit protection. It does not include GFCI, AFCI, or equipment ground fault protection (EGFP) capabilities.
