Description
Built for industrial applications, the FDC2060 is a 2-pole, 60A molded case circuit breaker from Eaton's Series C family. It utilizes a fixed thermal-magnetic trip unit to deliver precise long-time and instantaneous (LI) protection. This F-Frame breaker fits into Series C panelboards. This catalog number includes a load-side lug only. It can be substituted with the newer PDG22P0060TFFJ, though the FDC maintains a higher 35kAIC rating at 600V. It features a 100kAIC rating at 480VAC.Specifications

Product FAQs
8 answersWhat types of enclosures or panels are compatible with the FDC2060?
This Series C F-frame breaker is designed for use in Eaton panelboards, motor control centers, and switchboards. It requires a bolt-on connection to the busbar.
Can I use this Eaton breaker to replace an older Cutler-Hammer or Westinghouse FDC2060?
Yes. Eaton acquired the Cutler-Hammer and Westinghouse electrical distribution lines. A modern Eaton Series C FDC2060 is a direct, interchangeable replacement for legacy Cutler-Hammer and Westinghouse models sharing the exact same catalog number.
How does the FDC frame differ from standard FD or FDB breakers?
The FDC designation indicates an ultra-high interrupting capacity within the Series C F-frame family. It provides significantly higher fault protection, such as 200kAIC at 240VAC, compared to standard FDB or high-interrupting FD breakers.
What type of wiring is accepted by the load terminals on this breaker?
The standard load lugs accept wire gauges ranging from 14 AWG to 1/0 AWG. You can safely terminate either copper (Cu) or aluminum (Al) conductors.
Is this molded case circuit breaker suitable for direct current (DC) systems?
Yes, it is rated for DC applications up to 250 VDC, providing an interrupting capacity of 22kA at that voltage.
Can I adjust the trip settings on the FDC2060 for specific load requirements?
No, this model features a non-interchangeable trip unit with fixed thermal and fixed magnetic settings. The overload and instantaneous short-circuit trip points are factory set and cannot be modified in the field.
How is this circuit breaker secured during installation?
It is a unit mount, bolt-on breaker. Unlike plug-on designs, it must be physically bolted to the busbar or mounting surface, ensuring a highly secure connection in environments like motor control centers.
Does this breaker include both line and load lugs out of the box?
Based on the standard configuration, this breaker is supplied with load terminals only. Because it is a bolt-on unit designed for panelboards and switchboards, the line side typically connects directly to the internal busbar.
