Product FAQs

8 answers
Is the PDG23M0090TFFL a direct replacement for older Eaton Series C breakers?

Yes, the Power Defense Frame 2 (PDG2) series is the modern replacement for legacy Eaton Series C F-Frame breakers. With its 65kAIC rating at 480VAC, the PDG23M0090TFFL is the direct upgrade for the classic HFD3090. Note that updated Eaton mounting hardware is required when retrofitting into existing equipment.

Can the Eaton PDG23M0090TFFL be used in DC electrical systems?

Yes, this thermal-magnetic breaker is rated for DC applications up to 250VDC, providing an interrupting capacity of 22kAIC. When installing in 250VDC systems, Eaton requires two poles to be wired in series.

What wire sizes are compatible with the lugs on this 90A breaker?

The standard lugs on the PDG23M0090TFFL accept aluminum or copper (Al/Cu) wire ranging from 14 AWG to 1/0 AWG. Ensure proper torque specifications are followed during installation as outlined by Eaton.

Are the trip settings adjustable on the PDG23M0090TFFL?

No, this breaker features a fixed thermal and fixed magnetic (TFF) trip unit. It provides standard long-time and instantaneous (LI) protection, but the trip thresholds cannot be adjusted in the field.

What types of enclosures and panels is this Power Defense Frame 2 breaker compatible with?

The PDG23M0090TFFL is designed for use in Eaton Power Defense enclosures, as well as compatible Eaton panelboards and switchboards that accept Frame 2 bolt-on breakers.

What does the M signify in the PDG23M0090TFFL catalog number?

In the Eaton Power Defense nomenclature, the M designates a high interrupting rating. For this Frame 2 breaker, it indicates a short-circuit capacity of 65kAIC at 480VAC and 100kAIC at 240VAC.

What does the L at the end of the PDG23M0090TFFL part number indicate?

The L indicates that the breaker is supplied with standard terminals on the load side only. This configuration is typical for panelboard installations where the line side bolts directly to the bus.

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

No, the Arcflash Reduction Maintenance System is only available on Power Defense breakers equipped with advanced PXR electronic trip units. The PDG23M0090TFFL uses a standard thermal-magnetic trip unit without ARMS capabilities.
