Manufactured for heavy-duty industrial environments, this 30-amp molded case circuit breaker delivers reliable thermal-magnetic protection. It incorporates De-Ion arc extinguishing capabilities to quickly suppress electrical faults. Built to fit seamlessly into classic Westinghouse enclosures and Eaton Pow-R-Line C panelboards, it functions as a precise drop-in component. This legacy unit is the historical predecessor to the FDB2030. Capable of handling up to 600VAC and 250VDC safely.
Is the Westinghouse F2030 an obsolete circuit breaker?
Yes, the original Westinghouse F2030 is a legacy F-Frame breaker that is no longer in active production. It is the historical predecessor to the Eaton Series C FDB2030, which is often used as a modern replacement for 14kAIC applications.
Which panelboards accept the F2030 circuit breaker?
The F2030 is a bolt-on breaker designed to fit classic Westinghouse panelboards, Eaton Pow-R-Line C panelboards, and compatible motor control centers.
Can the F2030 be used in direct current (DC) applications?
Yes, the F2030 carries a DC rating of 250VDC with a 10kA interrupting capacity. When installing this breaker in a DC circuit, ensure the poles are wired according to the manufacturer guidelines for DC fault interruption.
Are the trip settings on the F2030 adjustable?
No, the F2030 features a thermal-magnetic trip unit with fixed long-time and fixed instantaneous (LI) trip functions. The trip settings cannot be adjusted in the field.
What wire sizes and materials are compatible with the F2030 lugs?
The standard terminals accept 14 to 1/0 AWG wire. Electricians must verify the specific lug markings on the breaker, as some legacy Westinghouse F-Frame breakers were equipped with copper-only (Cu) terminals, while others feature dual-rated (Al/Cu) lugs.
What are the primary safety considerations when installing the F2030?
Always de-energize the panelboard before installing or removing a bolt-on breaker. Ensure the busbar mounting bolts and load-side lugs are tightened to the specified torque values to prevent loose connections, which can lead to thermal damage or arc flash hazards.
