Product FAQs
7 answersHow should I use the 15A rating when selecting the Eaton PDG23M0015VFFL?
The 15A rated current is the basis for matching the breaker to the circuit's load and conductor protection requirements. Select it where the circuit design calls for a 15A breaker.
How does the 600VAC rating affect selection?
The 600VAC rating sets the breaker's rated AC operating voltage. Compare it with the circuit voltage, and evaluate interrupting capacity separately against the available fault current.
What does the 65kA interrupting rating at 480VAC mean for installation?
At 480VAC, the breaker has a 65kA interrupting rating. For a 480VAC installation, the available fault current at the installation point must not exceed that rating.
How does the thermal-magnetic trip protect the circuit?
The thermal element provides long-time protection against sustained overloads. The magnetic element provides instantaneous protection against short-circuit currents, addressing a different fault condition than an overload.
Can I adjust the thermal or magnetic trip settings?
Both the thermal and magnetic trip settings are fixed. Choose this breaker for an application that uses fixed trip characteristics rather than field-adjustable trip settings.
How are the load-side conductors connected?
The load-side connection uses standard lugs. Plan the outgoing conductor terminations around lug connections rather than a different terminal connection method.
How do the pole count and phase rating guide circuit selection?
The breaker has 3 poles and a 3-phase rating. Evaluate this configuration together with the current, voltage and interrupting ratings when selecting circuit protection.
