Built to handle demanding commercial environments, this 60-amp thermal-magnetic device delivers consistent overcurrent protection. The unit fastens into Siemens P1, P2, and P3 panelboards, ensuring a stable connection for three-phase systems. Delivering a robust 65kAIC rating at 480VAC, it comes equipped with load side lugs and is HACR rated for HVAC equipment. For future upgrades, this model is replaced by the 3VA4160-6ED34-0AA0 using a 3VA41 strap kit.
HACR Rated, High Interrupting Capacity, Non-Interchangeable Trip
Product FAQs
6 answers
Which Siemens panelboards are compatible with the HEB3B060B circuit breaker?
This bolt-on unit is specifically engineered to fit Siemens P1, P2, and P3 series panelboards. It is not compatible with standard residential load centers or enclosures from other manufacturers.
What is the difference between Siemens HEB and NEB circuit breakers?
Both are part of the same frame family designed for P1, P2, and P3 panels, but the HEB series provides a higher interrupting capacity. The HEB offers a 65kA short-circuit rating at 480V, making it suitable for commercial or industrial systems with higher available fault currents than the standard NEB breakers.
Is there a newer equivalent if the legacy HEB3B060B breaker is unavailable?
Yes, Siemens is migrating the legacy NEB and HEB frames to the newer 3VA series. The direct replacement is the 3VA4160-6ED34-0AA0 circuit breaker, though it requires a separate 3VA41 strap kit to properly mount into older P1, P2, and P3 panelboards.
Are terminal lugs included with this circuit breaker?
Yes, the breaker comes equipped with load side lugs capable of accepting 14 AWG through 1/0 AWG copper or aluminum wire. Because it is a bolt-on panelboard breaker, the line side connects directly to the panel bus and does not require lugs.
How does the thermal-magnetic trip unit operate on this breaker?
The HEB3B060B features fixed Long-Time and Instantaneous (LI) trip functions. The thermal mechanism heats up to safely open the circuit during sustained overloads, while the magnetic mechanism trips the breaker instantly in the event of a severe short circuit or fault.
Is the HEB3B060B suitable for HVAC equipment installations?
Yes, this circuit breaker is HACR rated, meaning it is independently certified to provide safe overcurrent protection for heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration equipment.
