Product FAQs
7 answersWhich panelboards accept the EA1015 circuit breaker?
This bolt-on breaker is designed for legacy Westinghouse enclosures and can also be used in retrofit Eaton panelboards that accept E-frame breakers.
What is the direct replacement for the EHD1015 circuit breaker?
The EA1015 serves as an accurate cross-reference replacement for the Eaton or Cutler-Hammer EHD1015 model, fitting into the same bolt-on panelboard configurations.
Does the EA1015 carry an SWD rating for lighting circuits?
Yes, this breaker is SWD (Switching Duty) rated, meaning it is approved for the regular switching of 120V fluorescent lighting loads.
Is the EA1015 approved for HVAC applications?
Yes, it carries an HACR rating, making it suitable for protecting heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration equipment that requires a 15A circuit.
Can the EA1015 be used in DC applications?
Yes, in addition to its 120VAC rating, this breaker is rated for 125VDC applications with an interrupting capacity of 5kAIC.
What wire sizes are compatible with the EA1015 lugs?
The included load side lugs accept wire gauges from 14 AWG up to 1/0 AWG. Ensure proper torque specifications are followed during installation.
How does the thermal-magnetic trip unit function on the EA1015?
The fixed thermal-magnetic mechanism provides dual protection. The thermal element responds to prolonged overloads (long-time), while the magnetic element trips immediately during a short circuit (instantaneous).
