The Eaton PDG12G0050TFFJ molded case circuit breaker provides circuit protection against overloads and short circuits. It is rated for 50A at 600VAC and has 2 poles. Part of the Power Defense family, it uses a 1-Frame with fixed thermal and fixed magnetic trip settings. The breaker measures 5.50 in high, 2 in wide and 2.99 in deep.
What load rating should I use when selecting the Eaton PDG12G0050TFFJ?
This breaker has a 50A rated current. Use that rating when coordinating the breaker with the circuit load and conductor ampacity, while applying the installation's load-sizing requirements.
How does the 600VAC rating guide circuit selection?
The breaker is rated for 600VAC, so the circuit's AC operating voltage must not exceed that rating. Evaluate the interrupting rating separately at the circuit voltage.
How do I evaluate this breaker for available fault current at 480VAC?
Its interrupting rating is 35kAIC at 480VAC. For a 480VAC installation, verify that available fault current at the installation point does not exceed this interrupting rating.
Can I adjust the thermal or magnetic trip settings?
Both the thermal and magnetic trip settings are fixed. The thermal-magnetic LI trip provides long-time overload protection and instantaneous short-circuit protection, so select it where fixed trip settings suit the circuit's protection requirements.
What dimensions should I use when planning the installation layout?
This Power Defense 1-Frame molded case circuit breaker measures 5.50 in high, 2.00 in wide and 2.99 in deep. Use these dimensions to plan its physical placement and allow separate working space for conductor routing and termination.
What should I check about poles and phase before selecting this breaker?
The Eaton PDG12G0050TFFJ has 2 poles and a single-phase rating. Check both the required pole count and circuit phase during electrical selection, rather than selecting by current rating alone.
How are the incoming and outgoing conductors connected?
The breaker has standard lugs on both the line and load sides. Terminate incoming conductors at the line-side lugs and outgoing conductors at the load-side lugs.
