Product FAQs
7 answers
Which panelboards are compatible with the EGB24030?
This breaker is specifically designed for use in Square D NF series panelboards. It is an E-Frame circuit breaker and will not physically fit or connect in standard QO or I-Line panels.
Can the EGB24030 be used on an ungrounded 480V delta system?
No. The 480Y/277VAC designation is a slash voltage rating. This means the breaker is only approved for use in solidly grounded wye systems where the line-to-ground voltage does not exceed 277 volts.
What wire sizes and materials are accepted by the terminal lugs?
The built-in lugs accommodate dual wire materials, accepting 14 to 6 AWG for copper conductors and 12 to 6 AWG for aluminum conductors.
What does the LI trip function on this breaker mean?
LI stands for Long-Time and Instantaneous. The breaker utilizes fixed thermal-magnetic technology where the long-time function protects against gradual overloads, and the instantaneous function trips immediately to clear a short circuit.
Is this a plug-on or bolt-on circuit breaker?
The EGB24030 requires a bolt-on connection. It must be mechanically fastened to the bus bar of an NF panelboard, providing a highly secure connection for commercial and industrial applications.
How does the interrupting capacity change based on system voltage?
When installed in a 480Y/277VAC electrical system, the breaker has a maximum short-circuit interrupting rating of 35,000 amps (35kAIC). On 120VAC or 240VAC systems, this fault rating increases to 65,000 amps (65kAIC).
Are additional mounting brackets needed to install this breaker?
No additional bracket is required. The breaker mounts directly to the NF panelboard interior using its integrated bolt-on hardware.
