Rated for 20 amps, this 2-pole E-Frame circuit breaker delivers dependable power distribution for commercial and industrial facilities. It is designed to bolt into Square D NF panelboards, ensuring a tight, reliable connection for branch circuits. The breaker offers a 65kAIC interrupting rating at 480Y/277VAC and includes fixed thermal-magnetic trip functions. It is both HACR and HID rated for specialized lighting and HVAC loads, complete with a Visi-Trip indicator for quick status checks.
What panelboards are compatible with the EJB24020 circuit breaker?
The EJB24020 is a bolt-on E-frame breaker designed specifically for use in Square D NF panelboards. It is not compatible with NQ or I-Line panels.
What does the 65kAIC rating at 480Y/277V mean for this breaker?
This rating indicates the maximum fault current (65,000 amps) the breaker can safely interrupt at 480Y/277V without sustaining damage. This high interrupting capacity makes it suitable for commercial and industrial facilities with high available fault currents.
Can I use the EJB24020 to replace an EDB24020 or EGB24020?
Yes. The EJB24020 has the highest interrupting rating (65kAIC at 480Y/277V) in the E-frame family. It can safely replace the lower-rated EDB (18kAIC) or EGB (35kAIC) breakers of the same amperage and pole count, provided the panel accepts bolt-on E-frame breakers.
What wire sizes are accepted by the EJB24020 terminals?
The standard lugs on this breaker accept 14 to 6 AWG copper wire or 12 to 6 AWG aluminum wire. Ensure conductors are properly torqued according to the manufacturer specifications printed on the breaker faceplate.
Is the EJB24020 suitable for use with heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration equipment?
Yes, all Square D EDB, EGB, and EJB circuit breakers are UL Listed as HACR type, making them safe and compliant for use with HVACR motor loads.
How does the bolt-on connection of the EJB24020 benefit commercial installations?
Bolt-on breakers secure directly to the panel bus with screws, providing a highly reliable, vibration-resistant connection. This is critical in commercial and industrial environments where high fault currents or mechanical vibrations could loosen plug-on connections.
Is the EJB24020 rated for switching lighting loads?
Yes, this breaker is UL Listed for High Intensity Discharge (HID) applications, making it suitable for switching HID lighting loads in commercial environments.
