Engineered for demanding environments, the Eaton HFD2020V delivers 20A of thermal-magnetic protection within the proven Series C family. This F-frame unit features a specialized 50°C ambient calibration, ensuring reliable performance in high-temperature enclosures. It installs into Eaton Pow-R-Line panelboards, switchboards, and motor control centers via a bolt-on connection. Delivering 65kAIC at 480VAC, it is HACR rated, reverse feed capable, and eventually replaced by the PDG22M0020VFFJ.
What panelboards are compatible with the Eaton HFD2020V?
This F-frame breaker installs in Eaton Series C panelboards, Pow-R-Line panelboards, switchboards, and motor control centers.
What does the V suffix indicate on the HFD2020V catalog number?
The V suffix designates that the breaker is calibrated for a 50 degrees Celsius ambient temperature. This is typically required for marine, naval, or high-heat industrial environments.
What is the difference between FD and HFD breakers in the Eaton Series C family?
Both are F-frame circuit breakers with identical physical dimensions, but the HFD prefix designates a high-interrupting version built to safely clear higher fault currents than standard FD models.
What wire sizes are supported by the terminals on the HFD2020V?
The included lugs accept 14 AWG through 1/0 AWG conductors and are rated for both copper and aluminum wire.
Is the trip unit on the HFD2020V adjustable?

Can the HFD2020V be applied in direct current systems?
Yes, it is rated for use on 250VDC systems with a 22kA interrupting capacity, allowing it to protect specific DC circuits.
Does the HFD2020V snap into place or bolt onto the bus?
It is a bolt-on circuit breaker. It must be mechanically fastened to the panelboard bus, which provides a secure connection suitable for high-vibration environments.
