Product FAQs
9 answersWhat panelboards are compatible with the EDB16020 circuit breaker?
The EDB16020 is a bolt-on E-Frame circuit breaker designed exclusively for use in Square D NF series panelboards. It occupies a single pole space on the busbar.
What are the interrupting ratings for this breaker at different voltages?
The interrupting capacity depends on the system voltage. It is rated for 25 kA at 120/240 VAC, 18 kA at 480Y/277 VAC, and 14 kA at 600Y/347 VAC.
What wire sizes and materials are accepted by the lugs on the EDB16020?
The factory-installed lugs accept 14 AWG to 6 AWG copper wire, or 12 AWG to 6 AWG aluminum wire.
Is there a higher interrupting capacity alternative to the EDB16020?
Yes. If your system requires a higher fault current rating, the EGB16020 offers 35 kA at 480Y/277 VAC, and the EJB16020 provides 65 kA at 480Y/277 VAC. Both share the same physical footprint and NF panelboard compatibility.
Can this breaker be used for switching high-intensity discharge lighting?
Yes, Square D EDB series breakers are HID rated, making them suitable for switching high-intensity discharge lighting loads commonly found in commercial and industrial facilities.
Is the EDB16020 suitable for HVAC equipment?
Yes, this breaker is HACR rated, meaning it is approved for use with heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration equipment.
How does this breaker mount into the panelboard?
The EDB16020 features a bolt-on mounting design. It secures directly to the busbar of a Square D NF panelboard using a bolted connection, providing a secure and reliable contact for commercial applications.
What type of trip mechanism does the EDB16020 use?
It utilizes a fixed thermal-magnetic trip unit. The thermal element provides long-time overload protection, while the magnetic element responds to instantaneous short-circuit faults.
Does this breaker provide ground fault protection?
No, the standard EDB16020 does not include ground fault protection. For equipment ground fault protection, you would need a breaker with an EPD suffix.
