Delivering extra-high interrupting capacity, the Siemens CED63B080L is an 80A, 3-pole molded case circuit breaker designed for commercial and industrial facilities. It utilizes a fixed thermal-magnetic trip unit to provide precise LI protection. This breaker mounts into Sentron panelboards and enclosures. It is replaced by the 3VA6180-7HL31-0AA0, which requires a separate lug kit for installation. Rated at 200kAIC at 480VAC, this model conveniently includes both line and load side lugs.

Product FAQs
8 answers
What equipment is compatible with the CED63B080L breaker?
This unit mount breaker is designed for installation in Siemens Sentron panelboards, switchboards, and compatible standalone enclosures that accept ED frame devices.
How does the CED63B080L differ from standard ED6 or HED6 breakers?
The C in the CED6 prefix indicates a current-limiting construction with extra-high interrupting capacity. While a standard ED6 offers 18kA at 480VAC and an HED4 or HHED6 offers 42kA to 65kA, the CED6 provides up to 200kA at 480VAC.
What wire sizes and materials are supported by the lugs on this breaker?
The factory lugs accommodate 10 AWG through 1/0 AWG conductors and are rated for both copper (Cu) and aluminum (Al) wiring.
Is the CED63B080L suitable for DC voltage systems?
Yes, in addition to its AC ratings, this thermal-magnetic breaker is rated for DC applications. It provides an interrupting capacity of 50kA at 250VDC and 30kA at 500VDC.
Can the trip curve be adjusted on the CED63B080L?
No, this breaker features a fixed thermal and fixed magnetic trip unit. It provides standard long-time and instantaneous (LI) protection, but the trip points cannot be field-adjusted.
Does the CED63B080L plug into a panelboard bus?
No, this is a feed-thru, unit mount breaker. It must be bolted directly to the enclosure or mounting pan and hardwired on both the line and load sides, rather than plugging into a busbar.
Can the CED63B080L be used to replace legacy ITE breakers?
Yes, Siemens designates the CED6 series as a mechanically and electrically interchangeable replacement path for older ITE or Siemens CE and CLE current-limiting breakers of the same amperage and pole configuration.
What type of protection is provided by the LI trip unit in the CED63B080L?
The LI designation means the breaker includes Long-Time and Instantaneous trip functions. The thermal element provides long-time delay protection against continuous overloads, while the magnetic element offers instantaneous tripping during short circuits.
