Delivering 42 kAIC of interrupting capacity, the HFDDC3200W is a 3-pole, 200A molded case circuit breaker built for industrial and photovoltaic applications. As part of the Eaton Series C family, it provides essential protection in solar combiner boxes. This breaker integrates seamlessly into Eaton Series C panelboards. Supplied without line and load terminals (W suffix), it gives electricians the flexibility to install custom lug kits. It features fixed thermal-magnetic trip functions.
No. The "W" suffix in the catalog number indicates that this breaker is supplied without terminals. Electricians must source and install the appropriate lug kits separately based on the required wire size and conductor material.
Where is the HFDDC3200W typically installed?
As a DC-rated breaker in the Eaton Series C family, it is frequently installed in solar combiner boxes and photovoltaic (PV) systems. It is also fully compatible with standard Eaton Series C panelboards that accept F-Frame bolt-on breakers.
How does the DC interrupting rating compare to its AC rating?
The HFDDC3200W maintains a consistent interrupting capacity of 42kAIC across its primary voltage ratings. It delivers 42kAIC at 600VAC, as well as 42kAIC at both 250VDC and 600VDC for direct current applications.
Can I adjust the trip curve on the HFDDC3200W?
No. This breaker is equipped with a thermal magnetic trip unit that has fixed thermal and fixed magnetic settings. It provides standard long-time and instantaneous (LI) protection without field adjustability.
Can this Eaton breaker replace an older Cutler-Hammer HFDDC model?
Yes. Eaton acquired the Cutler-Hammer and Westinghouse breaker lines. A modern Eaton HFDDC3200W is a direct, interchangeable replacement for legacy Cutler-Hammer breakers sharing the same catalog number and F-Frame footprint.
What type of connection is required to mount this breaker?
The HFDDC3200W is a bolt-on circuit breaker designed for panel mounting. It requires bolted hardware to secure the connections to the panelboard bus, ensuring a reliable contact for high-amperage applications.
