Product FAQs
8 answersCan the Eaton RGC316039E be reverse fed?
Yes, all Eaton Series G R-Frame circuit breakers are suitable for reverse feed applications.
Does the RGC316039E come with standard mechanical lugs?
No, this breaker is supplied with imperial tapped pad terminals. If mechanical lugs are required for your installation, they must be ordered separately. Compatible options include the TA1600RD aluminum lug kit or the T1600RD copper lug kit.
What wire sizes are supported by the compatible TA1600RD lug kit for this breaker?
The TA1600RD aluminum lug kit accepts four conductors per phase, accommodating wire sizes from 500 to 1000 kcmil for both copper and aluminum conductors.
Does the RGC316039E include an Arcflash Reduction Maintenance System (ARMS)?
Yes, the 39 in the catalog number indicates this breaker is equipped with a Digitrip 310+ electronic trip unit that features LSIG protection along with an integrated Maintenance Mode. This system allows personnel to temporarily lower the instantaneous trip threshold to reduce arc flash hazards during maintenance.
What does the E suffix in the RGC316039E catalog number signify?
The E suffix indicates that the breaker is equipped with imperial tapped line and load conductors. Breakers with metric threading use an M suffix instead.
What equipment is the RGC316039E designed to be installed in?
This unit-mount RG-frame breaker is designed for integration into Eaton Series G panelboards, switchboards, and motor control centers.
What specific trip functions are adjustable on the RGC316039E?
This breaker features a Digitrip 310+ electronic trip unit with fully adjustable LSIG settings. This allows precise coordination of Long-Time, Short-Time, Instantaneous, and Ground-Fault protection parameters to match the specific requirements of your electrical system.
Does the RGC316039E require an external neutral current transformer for ground-fault protection?
If this breaker is installed in a three-phase, four-wire system, an external neutral current transformer (catalog number RGFCT160A) is required to properly sense ground faults. This sensor must be sourced separately.
