Belonging to the Series C family, the Eaton GHC1070 provides 70-amp, single-pole protection. This G-Frame MCCB delivers dependable overcurrent defense for commercial and industrial systems. Built for unit mount installations, it integrates into Eaton panelboards, OEM enclosures, and motor control centers. It also supports DIN rail mounting with an adapter. Rated for 14 kAIC at 277VAC, it features fixed thermal-magnetic trip units. The device is HACR rated and reverse feed capable.
Which panelboards and enclosures are compatible with the GHC1070 breaker?
This G-Frame breaker is designed for use in Eaton Series C panelboards, motor control centers, and OEM enclosures. It can also be installed on a standard 35mm DIN rail when paired with the appropriate Eaton mounting adapter.
Is the Eaton GHC1070 the same as the Cutler-Hammer GHC1070?
Yes. Eaton acquired Cutler-Hammer and continues to manufacture the Series C G-Frame breakers under the Eaton brand. The GHC1070 is an exact drop-in replacement for older Cutler-Hammer branded units with the same catalog number.
Can the GHC1070 be mounted on a DIN rail?
Yes. While it is natively a unit mount, feed-thru breaker, it can be installed on a standard 35mm DIN rail by using a compatible Eaton Series C DIN rail adapter kit.
Does the GHC1070 include ground fault or arc fault protection?
No. This is a standard thermal magnetic breaker with fixed long-time and instantaneous trip functions. It does not provide GFCI or AFCI protection.
What wire sizes are accepted by the lugs on the GHC1070?
The factory-installed lugs accept wire ranging from 10 AWG to 1/0 AWG. Ensure proper torque specifications are followed during installation as outlined by the manufacturer.
Is the GHC1070 interchangeable with GHB breakers?
No. While both are Series C G-Frame breakers, the GHC is a unit mount, feed-thru breaker, whereas the GHB is a bolt-on breaker designed for direct bus connection in Eaton panelboards. They mount differently and are not interchangeable.
