Part of the FAZ series, this 3-amp miniature circuit breaker delivers robust branch circuit protection for commercial and industrial applications. It is specifically designed to handle medium inrush currents. The two-pole unit installs easily onto standard 35mm DIN rail systems. It is fully compatible with a wide range of industrial control panels and accepts box lug terminations. Rated for 10 kAIC at 480Y/277VAC, the breaker features a C-curve thermal-magnetic trip and a trip-free design.
What does the C in the FAZ-C3/2-NA part number mean?
It indicates a C-curve trip characteristic. C-curve breakers trip instantaneously at 5 to 10 times their rated current, making them ideal for medium inrush applications like small transformers, lighting, and pilot devices.
What does the -NA suffix indicate on this Eaton FAZ breaker?
The -NA suffix means the breaker is UL 489 listed for branch circuit protection in North America. This allows it to be used as a primary overcurrent device, unlike UL 1077 supplementary protectors.
Can the FAZ-C3/2-NA be used in DC circuits?
Yes, this breaker is dual-rated for AC and DC applications. It is rated for up to 96VDC with a 10kAIC interrupting capacity.
Can I land two wires in a single terminal on this breaker?
Yes, the box lug terminals are designed to accept either a single wire (18 to 6 AWG) or two wires (18 to 10 AWG).
What is the recommended terminal fastening torque for the FAZ-C3/2-NA?
The required torque depends on the wire size: 21 lb-in for 18 to 12 AWG, 25 lb-in for 10 to 8 AWG, and 36 lb-in for 6 AWG.
What type of DIN rail is required to mount this breaker?
The FAZ-C3/2-NA mounts on a standard 35mm DIN rail.
Can this Eaton FAZ miniature circuit breaker be reverse fed?
Yes, the FAZ-NA series features a trip-free design and can be fed from either the line or load side.
Does this breaker have a trip-free mechanism?
Yes, it features a trip-free design, meaning the breaker will still trip under fault conditions even if the handle is physically held in the ON position.
