Operating in industrial power networks, the 30A Siemens ED62B030 provides essential long-time and instantaneous protection. The unit-mount design ensures stable performance across commercial environments. Designed to fit Siemens P1, P2, and P3 switchboards, it utilizes lug terminals for 10-1/0 AWG wire. Upgrading to the newer 3VA5130-5ED21-0AA0 substitute requires specific retrofit hardware. With an interrupting capacity of 25kA at 480VAC, it meets UL 489 standards and supports reverse feeding.

Product FAQs
7 answers
How does the ED62B030 mount into Siemens panelboards?
It is a bolt-on, unit-mount breaker designed for Siemens P1, P2, and P3 panelboards and switchboards. When installing into a panelboard bus, you will typically need the appropriate ED-frame strap kit for your specific panel generation.
What type of wire connections does the ED62B030 support out of the box?
It includes standard factory-installed mechanical lugs on both the line and load sides. These lugs are dual-rated for either copper or aluminum wire ranging from 10 AWG to 1/0 AWG.
Is the ED62B030 suitable for battery plants or other DC power systems?
Yes, in addition to its AC ratings, this breaker is fully rated for direct current applications up to 250VDC, where it provides a 30kA interrupting capacity.
Is the ED62B030 suitable for reverse feeding?
Yes, this thermal-magnetic molded case circuit breaker does not have line and load markings, making it capable of being reverse fed in standard applications.
Can I use an ED42B030 instead of the ED62B030?
Only if your system voltage is 480VAC or lower. The ED4 series is capped at 480VAC, whereas the ED6 series is rated for up to 600VAC. If your application requires 600VAC, you must use the ED62B030.
Can this be used to replace an older I-T-E Sentron breaker with the same part number?
Yes, Siemens retained the Sentron family and ED frame specifications after acquiring I-T-E. The current Siemens ED62B030 serves as a direct drop-in replacement for legacy I-T-E breakers sharing the same catalog number.
Does this breaker include ground fault or arc fault protection?
No, the ED62B030 features standard thermal-magnetic trip technology for overload and short-circuit protection. It does not provide GFCI or AFCI functionality.
