Product FAQs
7 answersWhat does the "W" suffix mean in the FDE322522W catalog number?
The "W" indicates that the breaker is supplied without line or load terminals. If you need standard line and load lugs, you must order the appropriate lug kits separately or source a model with an "L" suffix.
What does the "22" in the FDE322522W catalog number represent?
The "22" designates the specific electronic trip unit installed. It indicates the breaker is equipped with a Digitrip 210+ unit featuring LSI (long-time, short-time, and instantaneous) protection, as opposed to the "21" suffix which only offers LI protection.
Does the FDE322522W require a separate rating plug?
No, the integrated Digitrip 210+ electronic trip unit does not require a separate rating plug. The continuous current rating and protection parameters are adjustable via selectable dials on the breaker.
How is the amperage adjusted on the Digitrip 210+ trip unit?
The continuous current rating is adjusted using a selectable dial on the front of the trip unit. The 210+ features seven settings, labeled A through G, which correspond to specific amperage values listed on the breaker label.
How does the FDE series differ from standard FD or HFD breakers?
Standard FD and HFD breakers use fixed thermal-magnetic trip units. The FDE series upgrades to an electronic trip unit for adjustable protection settings, while maintaining the exact same Series C F-frame physical dimensions.
Can I field-install internal accessories like a shunt trip or auxiliary switch in this breaker?
No. Internal accessories for Eaton Series C F-frame electronic breakers are UL listed for factory installation only and cannot be field-installed.
What equipment is the FDE322522W compatible with?
This F-frame breaker is designed to mount in Eaton Series C panelboards, switchboards, and motor control centers (MCCs).
