Product FAQs

6 answers
Is the Eaton HKA3100 a direct replacement for older Westinghouse HKA3100 breakers?

Yes. Eaton acquired the Westinghouse distribution equipment division and continues to manufacture the K-Frame series. The Eaton HKA3100 is an exact drop-in replacement for vintage Westinghouse HKA3100 breakers, avoiding the need for deadfront modifications.

What types of panelboards are compatible with the HKA3100 circuit breaker?

The HKA3100 is designed for use in Eaton Pow-R-Line C panelboards, as well as vintage Westinghouse CDP and FDP panelboards, switchboards, and motor control centers.

Can the HKA3100 circuit breaker be reverse fed?

Yes. The HKA3100 is suitable for reverse feed applications, allowing it to be wired with the supply power connected to either the line or load terminals.

What does the H in the HKA3100 catalog number indicate?

The H designates this as the high-interrupting capacity version of the standard KA-frame breaker. It provides an elevated interrupting rating of 65kA at 240VAC compared to standard K-Frame models.

How is the magnetic trip adjusted on the HKA3100?

The HKA3100 features a fixed thermal and adjustable magnetic trip unit. The instantaneous magnetic trip can typically be adjusted between 5 and 10 times the continuous ampere rating, which corresponds to a range of 500A to 1000A for this 100A breaker.

Does the HKA3100 feature an interchangeable trip unit?

Yes. The HKA3100 is equipped with an interchangeable thermal-magnetic trip unit, allowing the trip mechanism to be swapped or upgraded without replacing the entire breaker frame.
