Product FAQs
8 answers
What equipment is the Eaton PDG23M0060E2NL compatible with?
This Frame 2 Power Defense circuit breaker is designed for installation in Eaton Power Defense panelboards, switchboards, and enclosures.
What does the M in the PDG23M0060E2NL catalog number indicate?
The M designates the breaker's interrupting rating tier, which provides 65kAIC at 480VAC.
What does the E2 signify in the PDG23M0060E2NL part number?
The E2 indicates that the breaker is equipped with a PXR20 electronic trip unit featuring adjustable LSI (Long-Time, Short-Time, and Instantaneous) protection.
What wire sizes are accepted by the lugs on the PDG23M0060E2NL?
The standard load-side lugs accommodate wire gauges ranging from 14 AWG to 1/0 AWG.
How are the trip settings adjusted on the PDG23M0060E2NL?
The PXR20 electronic LSI trip unit allows you to fine-tune the long-time, short-time, and instantaneous parameters directly on the front of the trip unit or by using Eaton Power Xpert Protection Manager software.
What is the advantage of the LSI trip function on this Power Defense breaker?
LSI protection allows you to customize the time-current curve for precise selective coordination. This helps isolate electrical faults to the nearest breaker, preventing widespread outages while protecting against overloads and short circuits.
What frame size is the PDG23M0060E2NL?
This breaker is part of the Eaton Power Defense Frame 2 (PDG2) family.
Can the PDG23M0060E2NL be used on a 240V or 480V system?
Yes, while it has a maximum rating of 600VAC, it is fully compatible with 240V and 480V systems. The interrupting capacity scales with voltage, providing 100kAIC at 240VAC and 65kAIC at 480VAC.
