Built to safeguard sensitive industrial loads, the Square D EGB14015EPD provides 15A of continuous current capacity with 30mA equipment ground fault protection. This prevents costly damage from low-level leakage currents. Designed specifically for Square D NF panelboards, this bolt-on E-frame breaker functions as a single-pole device but requires two spaces due to its advanced circuitry. With a robust 35 kAIC rating at 277V, it includes a Visi-Trip indicator and is SWD rated for switching.
What is the ground fault trip sensitivity of the EGB14015EPD?
This breaker is an Equipment Protection Device (EPD) with a 30mA ground fault trip threshold. It is designed to protect machinery and heat trace systems from low-level leakage currents, rather than providing Class A personnel protection.
How many panel spaces does the EGB14015EPD require?
Although it functions as a 1-pole breaker, the EGB14015EPD requires two spaces in a Square D NF panelboard to accommodate the integrated ground fault circuitry.
What does the EPD suffix mean on this Square D breaker?
EPD stands for Equipment Protection Device. It indicates that the breaker provides a 30mA ground fault trip level to prevent equipment damage, which is higher than the 4 to 6mA threshold used by standard GFI breakers for personnel protection.
Can the EGB14015EPD be used for Class A personnel protection?
No. Because it has a 30mA trip threshold, this breaker is strictly for equipment protection. Applications requiring Class A personnel protection must use a breaker with a 4 to 6mA trip level.
How is the neutral connection handled on this breaker?
The EGB14015EPD includes a factory-installed pigtail neutral. This coiled white wire must be connected directly to the panelboard neutral bar to power the internal ground fault monitoring circuitry.
Is the EGB14015EPD rated for lighting loads?
Yes, this breaker is both SWD (Switching Duty) and HID (High Intensity Discharge) rated. It can be safely used to switch fluorescent and HID lighting circuits on and off on a regular basis without degrading the breaker mechanism.
Does this breaker include a tripped circuit indicator?
Yes, it features the Square D Visi-Trip indicator. When the breaker trips, the handle moves to a center position and a bright red flag appears, allowing maintenance personnel to quickly identify the faulted circuit in the panel.
Which panelboards accept the EGB14015EPD breaker?
This bolt-on E-frame breaker is designed exclusively for use in Square D NF panelboards. It will not fit in QO, NQ, or I-Line panels.
