Built for heavy-duty electrical distribution, this 15-amp molded case breaker offers fixed thermal and magnetic trip settings. It fastens securely into Siemens P1, P2, and P3 panelboards as well as compatible switchboards. The ED6 frame construction ensures high-performance fault clearing up to 65kA at 240VAC and is HACR rated for HVAC equipment. For future upgrades, Siemens designates the 3VA5115-5ED21-0AA0 as the modern substitute, which requires a specific retrofit kit for installation.
What panelboards are compatible with the ED62B015 circuit breaker?
The ED62B015 is designed for use in Siemens P1, P2, and P3 panelboards, as well as compatible Siemens switchboards. It requires a bolt-on connection to secure directly to the bus.
What wire sizes and materials are supported by the standard lugs on this breaker?
The factory-installed lugs accept 14 to 10 AWG copper wire or 12 to 10 AWG aluminum wire. Always ensure proper torque specifications are followed during installation.
Is the ED62B015 suitable for DC applications?
Yes, this breaker is rated for direct current applications up to 250VDC, where it provides an interrupting capacity of 30kAIC.
Can this breaker be DIN rail mounted?
No, the ED62B015 is a unit mount, bolt-on molded case circuit breaker. It is not designed for DIN rail installation.
What type of trip unit is installed in the ED62B015?
This breaker features a non-interchangeable thermal magnetic trip unit with fixed thermal and fixed magnetic settings, providing long-time and instantaneous (LI) protection.
Does this breaker replace older I-T-E ED6 breakers?
Yes, Siemens Sentron ED-frame breakers are direct replacements for legacy I-T-E and Gould ED6 series breakers of the same amperage and pole configuration.
What does the '6' in the ED6 series nomenclature indicate?
In the Siemens Sentron nomenclature, the '6' in the ED6 series indicates a maximum voltage rating of 600VAC, distinguishing it from the 480VAC rated ED4 series.
Can I use this 2-pole breaker in a single-phase system?
Yes, while it is a 2-pole breaker, it can be utilized in single-phase 240V systems or across two phases of a three-phase system depending on the panelboard configuration.
