Product FAQs
8 answersWhat does the "L" in the FDC3045L catalog number indicate?
The "L" suffix indicates that the circuit breaker is supplied with factory-installed line and load terminals.
What is the difference between the FD3045, HFD3045, and FDC3045 breakers?
The difference is the interrupting capacity at 480VAC. The standard FD3045 is rated at 35kAIC, the high-interrupting HFD3045 is rated at 65kAIC, and the ultra-high interrupting FDC3045 is rated at 100kAIC.
Is the Eaton FDC3045L suitable for reverse feed applications?
Yes, standard thermal magnetic Series C F-frame circuit breakers are suitable for reverse feed use.
Can the FDC3045L be used in direct current (DC) systems?
Yes. While electronic trip F-frame breakers do not carry DC ratings, thermal magnetic models like the FDC3045L are fully rated for DC applications up to 250VDC.
Are Series C F-frame breakers HACR rated?
Yes, all Eaton F-frame circuit breakers carry a Heating, Air Conditioning, and Refrigeration (HACR) rating for use with HVAC equipment.
Is this breaker suitable for high intensity discharge (HID) lighting loads?
Yes, all Eaton Series C F-frame thermal magnetic circuit breakers rated 10A to 50A are suitable for HID use.
Can I use this breaker as a switch for fluorescent lighting?
No, the FDC3045L is not Switching Duty (SWD) rated. Only single-pole 15A and 20A FD and HFD breakers carry the SWD rating.
What is the recommended joint compound for aluminum conductors on this breaker?
When using aluminum conductors with the standard lugs, Eaton recommends applying a suitable joint compound to reduce the possibility of terminal overheating and nuisance tripping.
