Designed for heavy-duty commercial environments, this 20-amp E-frame breaker offers precise long-time and instantaneous trip functions. It is an excellent choice for facility managers upgrading their electrical infrastructure. Compatibility is streamlined for Square D NF panelboards, utilizing a secure bolt-on mounting style. The terminal lugs accommodate a wide range of wire gauges, from 14 AWG to 6 AWG copper. With a robust 65kAIC rating at 120V, it easily handles demanding fault conditions.
Which panelboards are compatible with the EGB14020?
This breaker is designed exclusively for Square D NF series panelboards. It bolts directly to the bus and will not fit into QO, Homeline, NQ, or I-Line panelboards.
Can the EGB14020 be used to directly control lighting circuits?
Yes. This 20-amp breaker is both SWD (Switching Duty) and HID (High-Intensity Discharge) rated, meaning it is certified to be used as a regular switch for fluorescent and HID lighting loads.
What is the difference between Square D EDB, EGB, and EJB circuit breakers?
These catalog prefixes designate the short-circuit interrupting capacity of the E-Frame breaker line. EDB is the standard interrupting tier, EGB is the high interrupting tier, and EJB is the extra-high interrupting tier. All three share the same physical dimensions and fit the exact same NF panelboards.
Is this breaker appropriate for 480V systems?
The EGB14020 is a 1-pole breaker rated for 277 VAC maximum. It is commonly used for 277V branch circuits in a 480Y/277V 3-phase, 4-wire system, but a 1-pole breaker cannot be used across phases for straight 480V loads.
Does this E-Frame breaker snap into place or bolt onto the bus?
It features a bolt-on connection. The breaker secures directly to the busbars of an NF panelboard using a mechanical fastener, which provides a highly secure connection for commercial and industrial environments. It is not a plug-on or DIN rail mounted device.
