Description

Designed to support existing infrastructure, the Eaton CA2175 is a 175A, 2-pole legacy C-Frame molded case circuit breaker. It ensures continued operation of older electrical systems. The unit-mount configuration is engineered for compatibility with classic Westinghouse CDP, FDP, and Pow-R-Line panelboards. It can be substituted with the EHD2175 series. Equipped with fixed thermal and magnetic trip elements, it supplies standard long-time and instantaneous (LI) protection at 10kAIC.

Product FAQs

5 answers
Which panelboards are compatible with the CA2175 circuit breaker?

This breaker is designed for use in legacy Westinghouse CDP and FDP distribution panelboards, as well as Eaton Pow-R-Line panelboards.

What wire sizes are accepted by the terminals on the CA2175?

The factory lugs on this breaker accept aluminum or copper wire ranging from 3 AWG up to 300 kcmil. Ensure proper torque specifications are followed during installation.

What type of trip unit is installed in the CA2175?

It features a non-interchangeable thermal magnetic trip unit with fixed long time and instantaneous (LI) trip functions for standard overload and short circuit protection.

Is the Cutler-Hammer CA2175 the same as the Westinghouse CA2175?

Yes, Eaton acquired the Westinghouse distribution equipment line. A Cutler-Hammer CA2175 is a direct replacement for an older Westinghouse breaker with the exact same catalog number.

How is the CA2175 breaker mounted in a panel?

This is a unit mount, feed-thru circuit breaker. It bolts directly to the chassis or mounting pan rather than plugging into a busbar.
