Product FAQs

6 answers
Which panelboards are compatible with the NEF433015 circuit breaker?

This breaker is designed for direct installation into legacy Federal Pacific NEF and CDP series panelboards. It utilizes a bolt-on connection to secure the breaker to the panel bus.

What wire sizes do the factory lugs on the NEF433015 accept?

The included lugs are designed to accept wire gauges from 14 AWG up to 2 AWG. Ensure proper torque specifications are applied during installation to maintain a secure connection.

Can the NEF433015 be used in direct current (DC) applications?

Yes, in addition to its AC ratings, this thermal magnetic breaker is rated for up to 250VDC with an interrupting capacity of 10kA, making it suitable for specific industrial DC control circuits.

Is the NEF433015 part of the Federal Pacific Stab-Lok residential line?

No. The NEF433015 is an N frame commercial and industrial molded case circuit breaker. It is distinct from the residential Stab-Lok series and is built for heavy duty applications in NEF and CDP panelboards.

What type of trip unit is equipped on the NEF433015?

It features a fixed thermal magnetic trip unit with Long-Time and Instantaneous (LI) trip functions, providing standard overload and short circuit protection for commercial branch circuits.

Does installing the NEF433015 in a CDP panelboard require additional hardware?

Yes, mounting an NEF frame breaker into a Federal Pacific CDP panelboard typically requires a twin branch mounting hardware kit, such as the NEF1K or KCDP1C, to properly connect the breaker to the bus.

    Great service & pricing

    Superbreakers did a great job for us. We called and asked if the breakers were actually in their possession. Withing 30 minutes they called us back (which is rare these days), and we got our breakers the next morning.
