Engineered for commercial electrical systems, the Square D EDB24045 delivers robust thermal-magnetic protection. This 45-amp, two-pole component is part of the E-Frame family. It mounts seamlessly into Square D NF series panelboards using a secure bolt-on connection, serving as an exact replacement for discontinued EHB24045 models. Rated for 25kA interrupting capacity at 240VAC, it includes Visi-Trip technology for rapid fault identification and is HACR rated for HVAC loads.
What panelboards are compatible with the EDB24045 circuit breaker?
The EDB24045 is designed exclusively for use in Square D NF series panelboards.
How many panel spaces does this 2-pole EDB breaker require?
This 2-pole breaker occupies two spaces in a Square D NF panelboard.
What is the difference between Square D EDB, EGB, and EJB circuit breakers?
The difference is their interrupting rating at 480Y/277VAC. EDB breakers are rated at 18kAIC, EGB at 35kAIC, and EJB at 65kAIC. They share the same physical E-frame and fit the same NF panelboards.
Can I replace an EDB24045 with an EGB or EJB breaker?
Yes, EGB and EJB breakers have the same physical dimensions and fit the same NF panelboards. They can be used as direct replacements if your application requires a higher short circuit current rating.
Is the EDB24045 suitable for use on a 480V ungrounded delta system?
No. The 480Y/277VAC rating indicates it is only suitable for solidly grounded wye systems. It cannot be used on ungrounded or corner-grounded 480V delta systems.
Is this breaker HACR rated for HVAC equipment?
Yes, Square D EDB circuit breakers are UL Listed as HACR type, making them suitable for heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration applications.
Can the EDB24045 be used in a 120/240V or 208Y/120V system?
Yes, while it has a maximum voltage rating of 480Y/277VAC, it is fully compatible and UL listed for use on lower voltage systems like 120/240VAC and 208Y/120VAC.
Will this breaker fit in a Square D QO or NQ panelboard?
No, E-frame breakers like the EDB24045 feature a bolt-on connection specifically designed for NF panelboards. They will not fit in QO or NQ series panels.
