Product FAQs

7 answers
What legacy Eaton or Cutler-Hammer breaker does the PDG13G0050TFFJ replace?

This Power Defense Frame 1 breaker is a direct drop-in replacement for the legacy EGS3050FFG molded case circuit breaker. It fits the same footprint and provides the same 35kAIC interrupting capacity at 480VAC.

What do the letters TFFJ signify in the PDG13G0050TFFJ catalog number?

The TFF indicates a thermal-magnetic trip unit with fixed thermal and fixed magnetic protection settings. The J signifies that the breaker comes standard with line and load box lug terminals.

Which panelboards are compatible with this Power Defense Frame 1 breaker?

It is designed for installation in Eaton Power Defense panelboards, switchboards, and approved enclosures. It also retrofits into older Eaton Pow-R-Line panelboards that previously used EG-frame breakers.

Are the trip units on the PDG13G0050TFFJ replaceable?

No. Power Defense Frame 1 (PDG1) breakers have sealed, non-interchangeable trip units. If the trip unit fails or a different trip curve is required, the entire circuit breaker must be replaced.

What does the G stand for in the PDG13G series designation?

In the Power Defense catalog numbering system, the G indicates the interrupting rating tier. For Frame 1, the G tier provides a 35kAIC rating at 480VAC and a 65kAIC rating at 240VAC.

What wire sizes are accepted by the standard lugs on this 50A breaker?

The included standard box lugs accept conductors ranging from 14 AWG to 3/0 AWG. Always torque the terminals to the specifications printed on the breaker label during installation.

Does this breaker include Arcflash Reduction Maintenance System (ARMS) technology?

No. The Arcflash Reduction Maintenance System is available on larger Power Defense frames equipped with advanced Power Xpert Release (PXR) electronic trip units, not on Frame 1 thermal-magnetic breakers like the PDG13G0050TFFJ.
