Engineered for commercial use, the Eaton EHD3045 is a 3-pole, 45A molded case circuit breaker from the Series C F-Frame family. This device bolts into Eaton Series C panelboards, switchboards, and motor control centers. It accepts 14-1/0 AWG wire and includes load side lugs. Rated 14 kAIC at 480VAC, it handles standard fault currents. It is HACR and HID rated for HVAC and lighting circuits, and supports reverse feed setups.
This F-frame breaker is designed for Eaton and Cutler-Hammer Series C panelboards, switchboards, and motor control centers. It bolts directly to the bus and is not interchangeable with newer Series G or Power Defense frames without specialized hardware.
What are the higher interrupting capacity alternatives to the EHD3045?
If your system requires a higher short-circuit rating, the FD3045 provides 35kAIC at 480VAC, and the HFD3045 provides 65kAIC at 480VAC. Both share the exact same physical F-frame dimensions and mounting as the EHD3045.
Are the trip settings on the EHD3045 adjustable?
No, this breaker features a fixed thermal and fixed magnetic trip unit. The long-time and instantaneous trip functions are factory calibrated for 45 amps and cannot be adjusted in the field.
What wire sizes do the standard EHD3045 lugs accept?
The factory-installed lugs accommodate 14 AWG to 1/0 AWG conductors. When installing, ensure the conductors are torqued to the specifications printed directly on the breaker label to prevent thermal issues.
