Product FAQs
6 answersWhat is the difference between the HFDE322532L and the standard FDE322532L?
The HFDE model is the high-interrupting capacity version, rated at 65 kAIC at 480 VAC. The standard FDE model is rated at 35 kAIC at 480 VAC. Both share the same physical dimensions and accept the same accessories.
What does the L suffix indicate in the HFDE322532L catalog number?
The L suffix indicates that the breaker is supplied with both line and load side lug terminals installed from the factory.
Can the HFDE322532L be reverse fed?
Yes. Eaton Series C F-frame breakers equipped with electronic trip units are suitable for reverse-feed applications.
Can this breaker be used in DC voltage applications?
No. Eaton F-frame breakers equipped with electronic trip units do not carry DC ratings. A thermal-magnetic F-frame breaker is required for DC applications.
What does the LSI trip function provide on this breaker?
The LSI designation means the electronic trip unit features adjustable Long-Time, Short-Time, and Instantaneous pickup settings. This allows panel builders to precisely coordinate the breaker with other protective devices in the system.
Which specific electronic trip unit is installed in this model?
The HFDE322532L is equipped with an Eaton Digitrip 310+ electronic trip unit, which provides true RMS sensing for accurate overcurrent protection.
