No, the EDH3175 utilizes a fixed thermal and fixed magnetic trip unit. The long-time and instantaneous (LI) trip functions are factory set and cannot be adjusted in the field.
Are internal accessories like shunt trips compatible with the EDH3175?
Yes, Eaton Series C F-Frame breakers support a range of field-installable internal accessories. You can add shunt trips, auxiliary switches, alarm switches, and undervoltage releases to the EDH3175.
How does the EDH3175 mount into a panelboard?
The EDH3175 is a bolt-on circuit breaker. It secures directly to the panelboard bus using specific mounting hardware kits, which must be selected based on your exact panelboard or meter stack model.
Can I use aluminum wire with the EDH3175?
Yes, the standard 3TA225FD lugs provided with this breaker are dual-rated for both copper (Cu) and aluminum (Al) conductors. Ensure you apply the appropriate joint compound when terminating aluminum wire.
