Built for elevated temperatures, the Siemens ED43M030 is a 3-pole, 30A molded case circuit breaker providing reliable protection for commercial and marine systems. The bolt-on unit mounts into Siemens Sentron panelboards, switchboards, and motor control centers. Its rugged ED4 frame ensures long-lasting performance in demanding setups. Delivering 18kA at 480VAC, it features a 50°C ambient calibration. The breaker is HACR rated, supports reverse feeding, and includes load lugs.
Can I install the Siemens ED43M030 in an older ITE panelboard?
Yes. The ED43M030 is part of the legacy ITE and Siemens ED frame lineage. It serves as a direct bolt-on replacement for older ITE ED frame breakers and is fully compatible with Siemens Sentron panelboards, switchboards, and motor control centers.
What does the M in the ED43M030 catalog number signify?
The M indicates that this breaker features a 50 degree Celsius ambient temperature calibration. Standard breakers are typically calibrated for 40 degrees Celsius. This elevated temperature rating makes it suitable for demanding commercial and marine applications.
Can the ED43M030 be used in direct current systems?
Yes. While commonly used in 480VAC applications, this thermal magnetic breaker is also rated for 250VDC systems, providing a 30kAIC interrupting capacity for DC loads.
What type of wire is compatible with the load lugs on the ED43M030?
The factory-installed lugs accept both copper and aluminum conductors. For copper, the acceptable wire range is 14 to 10 AWG. For aluminum, the range is 12 to 10 AWG.
Are the trip settings on the ED43M030 adjustable?
No. This breaker is equipped with a fixed thermal and fixed magnetic trip unit. The long-time and instantaneous trip functions are factory set and cannot be adjusted in the field.
Is the ED43M030 interchangeable with CED6 or other current-limiting ED frame breakers?
No. While they share the same ED frame family, standard ED4 breakers like the ED43M030 do not have the same interrupting capabilities or physical dimensions as current-limiting CED6 breakers. They cannot be used interchangeably unless explicitly permitted by the equipment listing.
Can the ED43M030 be reverse fed?
Yes. This breaker supports reverse feeding, allowing it to be wired with the line connections on either the top or bottom terminals depending on your panel layout.
Is the ED43M030 suitable for HVAC equipment?
Yes. This breaker is HACR rated, meaning it is approved for use with heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration equipment that requires HACR circuit protection.
