Product FAQs
8 answersHow should I use the 20A rating when selecting the Eaton PDG12G0020TFFJ?
Use the 20A rated current to select overcurrent protection appropriate for the circuit conductors and load. Coordinate that selection with the applicable installation requirements.
How do I apply the 35kA interrupting rating?
The interrupting rating is 35kA at 480VAC. For a 480VAC installation, verify that the available fault current at the installation point does not exceed 35kA.
What does the 600VAC voltage rating mean for circuit selection?
The 600VAC rating sets the rated operating-voltage limit for circuit selection. Evaluate operating voltage and interrupting capacity separately, using the 35kA at 480VAC interrupting rating for the fault-current check at that voltage.
Can I adjust the overload or instantaneous trip settings?
Both the thermal and magnetic trip settings are fixed. The thermal element responds to sustained overloads, while the magnetic element responds to short-circuit currents, so choose this breaker for an application that calls for fixed trip settings.
What does the LI trip function mean?
LI means long-time and instantaneous protection. These functions address overloads and short circuits, making them relevant when selecting the circuit's overcurrent protection.
When should I choose its 2-pole, single-phase configuration?
Choose this configuration when the single-phase circuit requires a 2-pole breaker. Pole count and phase are separate selection criteria from current, voltage and interrupting ratings.
How are the line and load conductors connected?
Both the line and load sides use lug terminals. Plan conductor termination at the respective line-side and load-side lugs.
What dimensions should I use when planning installation space?
The Eaton PDG12G0020TFFJ measures 2.00 in wide, 3 in high and 3.8 in deep. Use these dimensions to plan the space occupied by the breaker and organize conductor routing.
