Utilizing microprocessor-based sensing, the Eaton PDG53M0800E3MN is an 800A, 3-pole MCCB built for heavy-duty commercial and industrial applications. This unit mount breaker installs into Eaton switchboards and Pow-R-Line panelboards, and replaces the legacy HND3800T56W. Rated for 65 kAIC at 480V, it is equipped with a PXR20 LSIG electronic trip unit. This provides adjustable long-time, short-time, instantaneous, and ground fault protection alongside Modbus RTU connectivity.
What legacy Eaton or Cutler-Hammer breaker does the PDG53M0800E3MN replace?
The Power Defense Frame 5 PDG53M0800E3MN is the modern replacement for legacy 800A Series C ND-frame breakers, such as the HND3800T56W.
What does the LSIG designation mean on this electronic trip unit?
LSIG indicates that the electronic trip unit provides adjustable protection for Long-Time, Short-Time, Instantaneous, and Ground Fault conditions. This allows for precise coordination with other breakers in your electrical system.
Which enclosures and panelboards are compatible with this 800A breaker?
This breaker is designed for use in Eaton Power Defense enclosures, switchboards, and Pow-R-Line panelboards.
How does this breaker mount into a panel?
The PDG53M0800E3MN is a unit mount, bolt-on circuit breaker. It bolts directly to the bus or mounting pan rather than plugging in.
What is the advantage of the solid-state electronic trip unit over thermal-magnetic models?
Solid-state electronic trip units offer tighter tripping tolerances, better repeatability, and advanced adjustability for complex coordination schemes compared to traditional thermal-magnetic trip units.
Can this breaker be used on a 240V or 600V system?
Yes. While it is rated for 65kAIC at 480VAC, it is fully rated for use on 240V systems with a 100kAIC rating and 600V systems with a 35kAIC rating.
