Product FAQs
7 answers
Are Cutler-Hammer and Eaton HFD2090 breakers the same?
Yes. Eaton acquired Cutler-Hammer, and the HFD2090 is the exact same Series C molded case circuit breaker regardless of which brand name is printed on the label.
What is the difference between the FD2090 and the HFD2090?
The difference is the interrupting capacity. The HFD2090 is the high-interrupting version of the F-Frame series, rated at 65kAIC at 480VAC, whereas the standard FD2090 has a lower interrupting rating. Both share the same physical dimensions.
Which panelboards are compatible with the HFD2090?
This breaker is designed for use in Eaton Series C panelboards, switchboards, and motor control centers. It requires the appropriate F-Frame connector kits or mounting hardware for your specific enclosure.

No. The HFD2090 is a bolt-on molded case circuit breaker designed to be bolted directly to the bus or mounting brackets in compatible panelboards and switchboards.
Can the HFD2090 be used in DC electrical systems?
Yes. This thermal-magnetic breaker is rated for up to 250VDC with a 22kAIC interrupting rating, making it suitable for various industrial DC or battery applications.
