Is the HJD3070 suitable for reverse feed applications?
Yes, standard Eaton Series C thermal-magnetic breakers with non-interchangeable trip units, like the HJD3070, are HACR rated and suitable for reverse feed setups.
Can the Eaton HJD3070 replace an older Westinghouse HJD3070?
Yes. Eaton acquired the Westinghouse distribution equipment division, making the Eaton or Cutler-Hammer Series C HJD3070 a direct replacement for legacy Westinghouse models with the same catalog number.

Exactly what we needed, delivered complete and on time.
SuperBreakers had exactly what we needed (Breaker, Trip Unit, lug kits) - the breaker came quickly and with trip unit installed (ordered as a separate item) making integration quick and easy.
