Designed to support existing industrial setups, this 70-amp, two-pole breaker delivers reliable thermal-magnetic protection. It handles standard commercial loads with reverse feed capabilities. The device installs into classic Westinghouse panelboards and Eaton F-Frame motor control centers. Facility managers utilize this exact component to avoid upgrading enclosures, replacing the FDB2070. With a 14kAIC rating at 480V and proven De-Ion arc extinguishing, it ensures robust fault clearing.
What panelboards accept the F2070 circuit breaker?
The F2070 is a legacy F-Frame breaker designed to bolt into classic Westinghouse panelboards, Eaton F-Frame enclosures, and compatible motor control centers. It is an industrial molded case circuit breaker and will not fit in standard residential load centers.
What is the modern replacement for the Westinghouse F2070?
Eaton acquired the Westinghouse distribution equipment line. The direct modern equivalent is the Eaton Series C F-Frame, specifically catalog number FDB2070, which shares the same physical footprint and 14kAIC rating at 480VAC.
Can the F2070 be utilized in direct current (DC) applications?
Yes, this thermal-magnetic breaker is rated for up to 250VDC with a 10kA interrupting capacity. When applied in DC systems, poles are typically wired in series according to the specific grounded or ungrounded load configuration.
Are the trip settings on the F2070 adjustable?
No, this breaker features fixed thermal and fixed magnetic trip elements. It provides standard long-time and instantaneous (LI) overcurrent protection without adjustable dials.
Is the F2070 interchangeable with other manufacturer panelboards?
No. This F-Frame breaker utilizes a proprietary bolt-on mounting configuration designed exclusively for Westinghouse and Eaton Cutler-Hammer hardware. It cannot be installed in Square D, Siemens, or GE panels.
Can the F2070 be reverse fed?
Yes, standard thermal-magnetic F-Frame breakers like the F2070 do not have line and load directional restrictions and can be reverse fed in commercial and industrial applications.
