Product FAQs
7 answers
What panelboards accept the HED43B060 circuit breaker?
This ED-frame breaker is designed to bolt directly into the bus work of Siemens Sentron series panelboards and SB series switchboards.
Does the HED43B060 include line and load lugs?
Standard HED43B060 breakers are supplied with load-side lugs only, utilizing lug kit LN1E100. The line side is designed to bolt directly to the panelboard bus. If your application requires unit mounting with cables on both sides, you will need to source line lugs separately or order the lugged version (catalog number HED43B060L).
Can the thermal-magnetic trip settings be adjusted?
No, this breaker features a non-interchangeable, fixed thermal-magnetic trip unit. Both the long-time overcurrent and instantaneous short-circuit trip thresholds are factory calibrated and cannot be field modified.
Is the HED43B060 suitable for reverse feed applications?
Yes, Siemens ED-frame molded case circuit breakers can be reverse connected. They are safe to back-feed when utilized as a main breaker, provided the installation complies with current NEC guidelines.
Can I use this Siemens breaker to replace an older ITE HED43B060?
Yes, Siemens manufactures the Sentron line that was originally developed by ITE. The modern Siemens HED43B060 is an exact, UL-listed, drop-in replacement for the legacy ITE catalog number.
What is the ambient calibration temperature for this breaker?
The internal thermal elements for this molded case circuit breaker are calibrated for a standard 40 degrees Celsius (104 degrees Fahrenheit) ambient temperature environment.
Does this breaker provide GFCI or AFCI protection?
No, the HED43B060 provides standard overcurrent and short-circuit protection only. It does not contain ground fault or arc fault detection circuitry.
