Product FAQs

7 answers
What equipment is compatible with the FS240100A breaker?

This F-Frame breaker is designed for installation in Eaton Series C panelboards, switchboards, and motor control centers. It requires a bolt-on connection and is not compatible with standard residential plug-on load centers.

What frame size does the FS240100A use?

It is built on the Eaton Series C F-Frame platform, specifically utilizing the FS frame type. It shares physical dimensions and mounting footprints with other standard Eaton F-Frame breakers.

What wire sizes and materials do the terminals on the FS240100A accept?

The factory-installed lugs accommodate 14 AWG to 1/0 AWG conductors. They are dual-rated for use with both copper (Cu) and aluminum (Al) wiring.

How is the FS240100A mounted into an electrical panel?

It utilizes a unit-mount, bolt-on configuration. The breaker must be physically bolted to the bus or mounting pan, ensuring a secure connection in industrial or commercial environments.

Is the FS240100A suitable for direct current (DC) systems?

Yes, in addition to its standard AC ratings, this breaker is rated for 250VDC applications, providing a 10kAIC interrupting capacity for DC circuits.

Can I adjust the trip settings on the FS240100A?

No, this breaker features a fixed thermal-magnetic trip unit. Both the long-time overload and instantaneous short-circuit trip functions are factory-set and cannot be adjusted in the field.

What does the LI trip function code indicate on this breaker?

The LI designation means the thermal-magnetic trip unit provides Long-Time (L) protection against gradual overloads and Instantaneous (I) protection against severe short circuits.
