Built for commercial and industrial applications, this 15-amp Series C breaker provides reliable thermal-magnetic protection. It mounts securely into Eaton Pow-R-Line panelboards, switchboards, and motor control centers. Rated for a high interrupting capacity of 65kAIC at 480VAC, the three-pole bolt-on unit comes equipped with load side lugs. While this F-Frame model remains in service, facilities upgrading to newer Eaton platforms often cross-reference to the Power Defense PDG23M0015TFFJ.

Product FAQs
7 answers
Is the Eaton HFD3015 rated for HVAC equipment?
Yes, all Eaton F-Frame thermal-magnetic breakers are HACR rated, making them suitable for use with heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration group motor loads.
Can this 15A breaker be used for high-intensity discharge lighting circuits?
Yes, Eaton F-Frame thermal-magnetic circuit breakers rated between 10A and 50A are HID rated and approved for switching high-intensity discharge lighting loads.
Can the HFD3015 circuit breaker be reverse fed?
Yes, Eaton Series C F-Frame breakers with thermal-magnetic trip units are suitable for reverse-feed applications. Always verify that load terminals are de-energized before servicing a backfed breaker.
Is the trip unit on this breaker adjustable?
No. The HFD3015 features a non-interchangeable trip unit with fixed thermal and fixed magnetic settings. It provides standard Long-Time and Instantaneous (LI) protection without field adjustability.
Can this breaker replace legacy Westinghouse or Cutler-Hammer F-Frame breakers?
Yes, the Eaton HFD3015 is a direct replacement for older Cutler-Hammer and Westinghouse HFD3015 Series C circuit breakers. It maintains the exact same physical footprint and bolt-on bus connections.
Do the factory lugs on the HFD3015 accept aluminum wire?
Yes, the standard load-side lugs are dual-rated for both copper and aluminum (Cu/Al) conductors, accepting stranded wire sizes from 14 AWG up to 1/0 AWG.
How should an overload trip be reset on this breaker?
Move the operating handle to the extreme OFF position to reset the internal mechanism, then push it to the ON position. Following a thermal overload trip, wait two minutes to allow the internal bimetal elements to cool before attempting a reset.
