Designed for seamless integration into Siemens P1, P2, and P3 panelboards, this 3-pole 70A MCCB utilizes a secure bolt-on mounting configuration. The HED43B070 features a high interrupting capacity of 42kA at 480VAC, making it ideal for heavy-duty commercial environments. It comes equipped with load-side lugs accepting 10-1/0 AWG wire. For facilities upgrading their infrastructure, note that this model is replaced by the 3VA5170-6EC31-0AA0, which requires a specific panelboard retrofit kit.
What panelboards are compatible with the HED43B070 circuit breaker?
This ED-frame breaker is designed for bolt-on installation in Siemens P1, P2, and P3 panelboards, as well as SB switchboards.
Can I use the Siemens HED43B070 to replace an older ITE breaker?
Yes. Siemens acquired ITE and maintains backward compatibility for the Sentron ED frame. The HED43B070 is a direct replacement for legacy ITE breakers with the same catalog number.
What does the H in the HED43B070 catalog number indicate?
The H designates a High Interrupting Capacity breaker. While standard ED4 breakers are rated 65kA at 240VAC, the HED4 series provides a 100kA interrupting rating at 240VAC and 42kA at 480VAC.
Is the HED43B070 suitable for reverse feeding?
Yes. Siemens ED-frame thermal-magnetic circuit breakers do not have line and load restrictions and can be reverse fed for back-feed applications.
What type of load lugs are included with the HED43B070?
This breaker comes factory-installed with LN1E100 load lugs, which accept 10 to 1/0 AWG copper or aluminum wire.
Where can I find the torque specifications for the HED43B070 terminals?
The exact torque requirements for the line and load connectors are printed directly on the circuit breaker nameplate. Always use a calibrated torque wrench to ensure proper connection.
Can I adjust the trip settings on the HED43B070?
No. This breaker features a non-interchangeable, fixed thermal and fixed magnetic trip unit. It does not offer adjustable trip settings.
