Description
Designed to handle moderate inductive loads, this two-pole 8A component operates across commercial and marine environments. The C-curve response is ideal for circuits with standard inrush currents. For seamless integration, the module snaps onto standard 35mm DIN rails. It fits perfectly inside industrial control panels and automated machinery enclosures requiring compact protection. Capable of interrupting 10kA at 480Y/277VAC, the device features current-limiting capabilities.Specifications

Product FAQs
7 answersWhat is the magnetic trip point for the FAZ-C8/2-NA?
This breaker features a C-curve characteristic, meaning its magnetic trip point is 5 to 10 times the 8A rated current. It is designed to handle medium inrush currents without nuisance tripping.
Is this breaker UL 489 listed for branch circuits?
Yes, the FAZ-NA series is UL 489 listed, which means it is approved for feeder and branch circuit protection in industrial control panels, unlike UL 1077 supplementary protectors.
What applications are suitable for this C-curve miniature circuit breaker?
C-curve devices are ideal for loads with moderate inrush currents. Common applications include small transformers, lighting circuits, pilot devices, and PLC I/O points.
How is the FAZ-C8/2-NA secured inside an enclosure?
It snaps directly onto a standard 35mm DIN rail, making it easy to install or replace within industrial control panels and feeder systems.
How does the current-limiting design of this breaker protect equipment?
The current-limiting design interrupts fault currents within one half cycle. This fast response reduces the peak let-through energy, minimizing potential damage to downstream components.
Can the breaker be forced to stay on during a fault?
No, it features a trip-free mechanism. The breaker will automatically trip and open the circuit under overload or short-circuit conditions, even if the handle is physically held in the ON position.
Can I add auxiliary contacts or shunt trips to this breaker?
Yes, the Eaton FAZ-NA series supports field-mountable accessories, allowing you to easily integrate auxiliary switches, alarm contacts, or shunt trips for advanced control and monitoring.
