Providing robust overcurrent protection, the Square D EGB24080 is an 80-amp, 2-pole molded case circuit breaker from the E-Frame series. It utilizes thermal-magnetic trip technology to safeguard electrical systems. This unit bolts firmly into Square D NF panelboards, offering a reliable mechanical and electrical connection. The included load-side lugs accept 14-2/0 AWG copper or 12-2/0 AWG aluminum conductors.
Which panelboards are compatible with the EGB24080 circuit breaker?
This bolt-on breaker is designed exclusively for use in Square D NF series panelboards.
Can I use the EGB24080 in a 120/240V system?
Yes, while it has a maximum voltage rating of 480Y/277VAC, it is fully compatible with 120/240VAC systems and provides a higher 65kA interrupting rating at 240V.
What are the lug torque specifications for the EGB24080?
The factory aluminum lugs require 34.5 lb-in of torque for 14-10 AWG wire, and 49.6 lb-in for 8-2/0 AWG wire.
Does the EGB24080 feature a visual trip indicator?
Yes, it includes the Square D Visi-Trip indicator, which provides a clear visual signal when the breaker has tripped due to an overload or short circuit.
What is the difference between the EDB24080, EGB24080, and EJB24080?
These breakers share the same physical E-Frame and fit NF panelboards, but they have different interrupting ratings at 480Y/277VAC. The EDB is rated at 18kA, the EGB at 35kA, and the EJB at 65kA.
Can the EGB24080 replace an existing EDB24080?
Yes, the EGB24080 has the exact same physical dimensions and mounting as the EDB24080. It offers a higher interrupting rating, making it a direct and safe upgrade for NF panelboards.
What are the magnetic trip thresholds for the EGB24080?
The instantaneous magnetic trip unit on this 80A breaker has a holding current of 1000A and a trip current of 2300A.
Is the EGB24080 HACR rated?
Yes, this breaker is HACR rated, meaning it is certified for use with heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration equipment motor loads.
