Product FAQs
6 answers
What types of equipment are compatible with the HLD2600 breaker?
This L-frame breaker is designed specifically for installation in Eaton Series C panelboards, switchboards, and motor control centers.
What wire size and terminal type come standard on the HLD2600?
This breaker comes equipped with standard mechanical lugs designed to accept two 400 to 500 kcmil conductors per phase.
What does the H in the HLD2600 part number indicate?
The H designates this as a high-interrupting breaker. It provides a 65kAIC rating at 480VAC, which is significantly higher than the 35kAIC rating of the standard LD2600 model.
Is the Eaton HLD2600 a direct replacement for legacy Westinghouse models?
Yes, Eaton Series C breakers are backward compatible. This model can directly replace older Cutler-Hammer and Westinghouse HLD2600 breakers without requiring panel modifications.
How is the HLD2600 mounted within an enclosure?
As a unit-mount, feed-thru breaker, it bolts directly to the backpan or chassis of the panelboard or switchboard rather than plugging onto a bus bar.
Can the trip curve be adjusted in the field?
No, the HLD2600 features a fixed thermal and fixed magnetic trip unit. The long-time and instantaneous trip thresholds are factory set and cannot be modified.
