Product FAQs
5 answers
Which Siemens panelboards are compatible with the HGB3B035B?
This breaker is designed for use in Siemens Sentron P1, P2, P3, P4, and P5 panelboards. It mounts directly to the panel bus using a secure bolt-on connection.
What is the difference between the HGB3B035B and the NGB3B035B?
The H in the HGB prefix indicates a high interrupting rating. The HGB3B035B provides 35kAIC at 480Y/277V AC, whereas the standard NGB version offers a lower short-circuit rating. Both share the same physical footprint and panelboard compatibility.
Can this breaker be used in direct current applications?
Yes, the HGB3B035B is rated for DC circuits up to 125/250V DC, where it provides an interrupting capacity of 42kAIC.
What wire sizes are accepted by the lugs on this breaker?
The factory lugs accept 8 AWG to 1/0 AWG copper wire, or 8 AWG to 2/0 AWG aluminum wire. Always verify the required torque specifications printed on the breaker faceplate during installation.
What safety precautions are required when installing this bolt-on breaker?
Installation must be performed by a licensed electrician. The panelboard must be completely de-energized before bolting the breaker to the bus to prevent severe arc flash and electrical shock hazards.
