Restoring legacy electrical systems is straightforward with the Eaton HLB3350, a 350A, 3-pole molded case circuit breaker. Belonging to the Mark 75 family, it provides essential long-time and instantaneous protection. This specific model is engineered to mount perfectly into older Westinghouse and Cutler-Hammer panelboards. Choosing this exact replacement prevents the extra labor of installing a TAD3 spacer kit, which is required if using the newer Series C KD3350 cross-reference.

Product FAQs
6 answers
What is the modern Eaton replacement for the Westinghouse HLB3350?
The current Eaton Series C equivalent is the KD3350. Both breakers share the same physical footprint, but the top terminal tangs on the KD frame sit at a different height. Upgrading to the KD3350 requires a TAD3 spacer kit to fit properly in legacy LB-frame panelboards.
What does the H stand for in the HLB3350 part number?
The H indicates High Interrupting Capacity. As part of the Mark 75 family, the HLB3350 offers higher fault current protection than a standard LB frame, providing 35kAIC at 480VAC and 65kAIC at 240VAC.
What equipment is the HLB3350 designed to fit?
This bolt-on L-frame breaker is engineered for legacy Westinghouse and Cutler-Hammer panelboards, switchboards, and motor control centers. It mounts directly into enclosures designed for Mark 75 or LB-frame breakers without requiring adapter kits.
Can the trip settings on the HLB3350 be adjusted in the field?
The thermal element for long-time overload protection is fixed, but the magnetic instantaneous trip function is adjustable. This allows electricians to fine-tune the short-circuit response based on the specific load requirements.
Does the HLB3350 support parallel conductor installations?
Yes. The standard lugs can accommodate either a single 1 AWG to 600 kcmil conductor or two 1 AWG to 250 kcmil conductors per phase, accepting both aluminum and copper wire.
Is the HLB3350 suitable for DC power systems?
Yes, this thermal-magnetic breaker is rated for use in DC circuits up to 250VDC, where it provides an interrupting capacity of 22kAIC.
