Description

Built to fit Westinghouse and Eaton Series C panelboards, the K3150 is a 150A, 3-pole molded case circuit breaker. It delivers reliable thermal-magnetic protection with a 25kAIC interrupt rating at 240VAC. This bolt-on K-Frame breaker is ideal for commercial switchboards and motor control centers, and can be substituted with the KD3150. It features an interchangeable trip unit, reverse feed capabilities, and is HACR rated for heating and cooling applications.

Product FAQs

4 answers
Can the Eaton K3150 replace an older Westinghouse K3150 breaker?

Yes. Eaton acquired the Westinghouse distribution equipment business. The Eaton Series C K3150 is a direct replacement for the legacy Westinghouse K3150, sharing the exact same physical dimensions and mounting configuration.

What is the difference between the K3150 and the KD3150 circuit breakers?

The primary difference is the short-circuit interrupting capacity. The K3150 is the standard-rated version with 25kAIC at 240VAC, while the KD3150 is the high-interrupting version rated at 65kAIC at 240VAC. Both share the same K-Frame footprint and mount identically.

What does the adjustable magnetic trip function on the K3150 do?

The adjustable magnetic trip allows you to tune the instantaneous short-circuit response threshold. This flexibility helps coordinate the breaker with downstream devices or handle specific motor inrush currents without nuisance tripping, while the thermal overload protection remains fixed.

Does the K3150 require a specific mounting hardware kit for panelboard installation?

The K3150 is a bolt-on breaker that mounts directly to the busbar in Eaton Series C and legacy Westinghouse panelboards. It does not require a separate mounting block, but you must ensure the panelboard is configured to accept K-Frame breakers.
