Product FAQs
6 answersWhat panelboards are compatible with the EHC3060 circuit breaker?
This F-frame breaker is designed specifically for Eaton and Cutler-Hammer Series C panelboards, switchboards, and motor control centers that accept bolt-on molded case circuit breakers.
What is the recommended replacement for the legacy EHC3060 breaker?
The EHC3060 is a legacy Series C model. For direct replacements or system upgrades, the Eaton EHD3060 is the standard cross-reference, sharing the same F-frame footprint and bolt-on mounting.
What wire sizes are compatible with the load-side lugs on the EHC3060?
The factory-installed load lugs accept wire gauges ranging from 14 AWG to 1/0 AWG. Ensure you torque the terminals to the manufacturer specifications printed on the breaker face.
Is the EHC3060 rated for direct current (DC) systems?
Yes, in addition to its AC ratings, this breaker is rated for use in DC systems up to 250VDC, providing a 10kA interrupting capacity.
Can the trip curve be adjusted on the EHC3060?
No, this breaker features a thermal-magnetic trip unit with fixed thermal and fixed magnetic settings. The long-time and instantaneous (LI) trip functions are factory-calibrated and non-adjustable.
Are Series C F-frame breakers interchangeable with newer Power Defense models?
No. While they may share similar electrical ratings, Series C breakers like the EHC3060 have different faceplate dimensions and accessory compatibilities compared to the newer Power Defense line. They cannot be used interchangeably.
