Designed for heavy-duty industrial environments, this 400A Series C unit-mount breaker provides reliable long-time and instantaneous protection. It serves as an exact cross-reference for older LA3400 models, fitting perfectly into Pow-R-Line 4 panelboards and motor control centers without modifications. The HACR-rated and reverse-feed capable design ensures versatile application across commercial switchboards while maintaining a 65kAIC rating at 240VAC.
What types of panelboards are compatible with the LD3400 circuit breaker?
This Series C L-frame breaker is designed for use in Eaton and Cutler-Hammer Pow-R-Line 4 panelboards, switchboards, and motor control centers. It is designed for unit mounting configurations.
What are the wire size requirements for the standard lugs on the LD3400?
The standard factory-installed line and load terminals on this breaker accept two conductors per phase. The lugs are rated for aluminum or copper wire, accommodating sizes from 3/0 AWG up to 350 kcmil.
Is the Eaton LD3400 a direct replacement for older Westinghouse or Cutler-Hammer LD3400 units?
Yes. Eaton acquired the Westinghouse electrical distribution division and integrated it under the Cutler-Hammer name before transitioning to the Eaton brand. An LD3400 stamped with Westinghouse, Cutler-Hammer, or Eaton will be physically and electrically identical.
Does the LD3400 feature adjustable trip settings?
No, this specific model features a fixed thermal and fixed magnetic trip unit. If you require adjustable settings or electronic trip functions, you will need a different breaker configuration within the Series C L-frame family.
Is the LD3400 rated for direct current (DC) applications?
Yes, this thermal magnetic breaker carries a UL rating for 250 VDC applications with an interrupting capacity of 22 kA. It is suitable for DC systems within these voltage and fault current limits.
How is the LD3400 breaker mounted in a panelboard?
This is a unit mount circuit breaker. It bolts directly to the chassis or mounting pan of compatible switchboards and Pow-R-Line 4 panelboards, requiring hardwired line and load connections rather than plugging directly onto a bus.
