Product FAQs
5 answers
What equipment is compatible with the FDC3225?
This breaker is designed for installation in Eaton Pow-R-Line C panelboards, switchboards, and motor control centers.
What is the difference between Eaton FD, HFD, and FDC breakers?
The difference is the interrupting capacity. The standard FD is rated 35kAIC at 480VAC, the HFD is rated 65kAIC, and the FDC3225 offers the highest rating at 100kAIC at 480VAC. All three share the same physical F-frame dimensions.
Can the Eaton FDC3225 replace an older Westinghouse FDC3225?
Yes. Eaton acquired the Westinghouse electrical distribution division. The current Eaton or Cutler-Hammer FDC3225 is a direct replacement for legacy Westinghouse breakers with the exact same catalog number.
Is the FDC3225 suitable for reverse feed applications?
Yes, standard thermal magnetic Series C F-frame circuit breakers like the FDC3225 are suitable for reverse feed installations.
Are the trip settings on the FDC3225 adjustable?
No. This breaker features a thermal magnetic trip unit with fixed thermal and fixed magnetic settings for long time and instantaneous protection.
