Product FAQs
5 answers
What does the L suffix indicate in the FDC3070L part number?
The L signifies that the breaker is supplied from the factory with standard pressure line and load lugs. These terminals are pre-installed and ready to accept 14 to 1/0 AWG copper or aluminum conductors.
Can I use the FDC3070L to replace an older FD or HFD breaker?
Yes. The FDC frame shares the exact same physical dimensions and mounting footprint as standard FD and HFD breakers. It offers a higher interrupting capacity, making it a direct drop-in upgrade for older Series C F-Frame installations.
Are the trip settings adjustable on this model?
No. This breaker features a fixed thermal and fixed magnetic trip unit. The trip functions are non-interchangeable and cannot be adjusted in the field.
How is a unit mount breaker installed in a panelboard?
Unit mount breakers are designed to be bolted directly to a backpan or mounting plate. When installing this breaker into an Eaton Series C panelboard, you will need the appropriate mounting bracket or strap kit to connect the breaker to the panel bus.
Is this breaker rated for direct current (DC) systems?
Yes, the FDC3070L carries a 250VDC rating with a 22kA interrupting capacity. When deploying in DC applications, consult Eaton technical documentation for the correct series wiring of the poles.
