Product FAQs
6 answers
What enclosures or panelboards accept the HFDE308032?
It is designed for use in Eaton Pow-R-Line C panelboards, switchboards, and motor control centers that accommodate Series C F-frame breakers.
Can the HFDE308032 replace standard thermal-magnetic F-frame breakers?
Yes, this electronic trip breaker shares the same physical dimensions as standard Series C F-frame breakers like the FD or HFD series. It serves as a direct physical replacement when LSI functionality is required.
What does the H in the HFDE prefix signify?
The H indicates a high-interrupting capacity rating compared to standard FDE breakers. This model provides up to 100kAIC at 240VAC and 65kAIC at 480VAC.
How are the LSI settings adjusted on this breaker?
The Long-Time, Short-Time, and Instantaneous pickup and delay settings are configured using the rotary dials located directly on the face of the electronic trip unit.
Does this breaker provide ground fault protection?
No, the HFDE308032 includes LSI trip functions but does not include the G (Ground Fault) function. If equipment ground fault protection is required, an LSIG trip unit must be specified.
What wire sizes are compatible with the standard lugs on this breaker?
The factory-installed lugs accept 14 AWG through 1/0 AWG copper or aluminum conductors. Ensure proper torque specifications are followed during installation as labeled on the breaker faceplate.
