Product FAQs
6 answers
Which panelboards are compatible with the EGB34050SA circuit breaker?
This E-frame breaker is designed exclusively for use in Square D NF series panelboards. It features a bolt-on connection and cannot be installed in QO, NQ, or I-Line panels.
What does the SA suffix indicate on the EGB34050SA?
The SA suffix means this breaker is equipped with a factory-installed 110-130VAC shunt trip for remote tripping capabilities. Because the shunt trip mechanism is factory-installed, it cannot be added in the field.
How many panel spaces does the EGB34050SA require?
Although it is a 3-pole breaker, the factory-installed shunt trip requires one additional pole space. Therefore, the EGB34050SA will occupy 4 spaces in your NF panelboard.
Can the EGB34050SA be used in series-rated combinations?
Yes, Square D EGB breakers are UL listed for use in series-rated systems when paired with approved upstream main breakers. Always consult the series rating label on your specific NF panelboard to verify the maximum short-circuit current rating for your installation.
What is the difference between EDB, EGB, and EJB breakers?
These are all E-frame breakers designed for NF panelboards, but they have different interrupting ratings at 480Y/277VAC. The EGB is the standard-tier version with a 35kAIC rating. The EDB has a lower interrupting rating of 18kAIC, while the EJB offers a higher rating of 65kAIC.
Does the EGB34050SA feature a visual trip indicator?
Yes, Square D E-frame breakers feature a VISI-TRIP indicator. When the breaker trips due to an overload or short circuit, the handle snaps to a center position and a highly visible red indicator appears, making it easy to identify the tripped breaker in the panel.
