Product FAQs

8 answers
Which panelboards are compatible with the HFDE322536L circuit breaker?

This F-frame breaker is designed for use in Eaton Pow-R-Line C Panelboards, Series C Panelboards, switchboards, and motor control centers.

Can the HFDE322536L be reverse fed?

Yes, Eaton FDE electronic circuit breakers are suitable for reverse-feed applications.

Is the HFDE322536L rated for DC voltage applications?

No, FDE electronic breakers do not carry DC ratings. If your application requires DC ratings, you must use a thermal-magnetic F-frame breaker instead.

Do I need an external neutral sensor for the ground fault function on this breaker?

Yes, if you are installing this breaker in a 3-phase, 4-wire system, an external neutral current sensor is required for the ground fault (G) protection to function correctly. The sensor is not included with the breaker.

What settings can be adjusted on the electronic LSIG trip unit?

The LSIG trip unit allows you to adjust the Long-Time pickup and delay, Short-Time pickup and delay, Instantaneous pickup, and Ground Fault pickup and delay settings to coordinate with your specific system requirements.

Can the HFDE322536L replace an older thermal-magnetic HFD breaker?

Yes, it shares the same physical F-frame footprint and can mount in the same space. However, because it uses an electronic LSIG trip unit, you must verify that your system supports the ground fault protection requirements, including adding a neutral sensor if used on a 4-wire system.

What type of wire connections are provided on the HFDE322536L?

This breaker includes feed-thru lugs on both the line and load sides. The terminals are rated for 4 AWG to 4/0 AWG copper or aluminum conductors.

Is the HFDE322536L HACR rated for HVAC applications?

Yes, all Eaton Series C F-frame circuit breakers are HACR rated for use with heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration equipment.
