Designed to support heavy industrial loads, this 250A Series C component provides fixed thermal and adjustable magnetic trip functions. The bolt-on configuration integrates smoothly into older Westinghouse panelboards and Eaton Pow-R-Line systems. Facility managers can utilize this unit to replace aging JDB3250 or JD3250 hardware without modifying the enclosure. Delivering 22kAIC at 480VAC, the device supports reverse feeding and carries full HACR approval for specialized applications.

Product FAQs
5 answers
Which panelboards accept the JB3250 circuit breaker?
The JB3250 is a Series C J-Frame breaker compatible with legacy Westinghouse panelboards, Eaton Pow-R-Line panelboards, switchboards, and motor control centers.
What is the adjustable magnetic trip range for the 250A JB3250?
The magnetic trip on the JB3250 can be adjusted from a low setting of 1250A to a high setting of 2500A. The thermal overload protection is fixed at 250A.
What is the required tightening torque for the JB3250 wire terminals?
For the standard TA250KB aluminum and copper lugs accepting 4 AWG to 350 kcmil wire, the required tightening torque is 275 lb-in. If the breaker is equipped with T250KB copper-only lugs, the torque is 180 lb-in.
Does the JB3250 require a specific mounting hardware kit?
Yes, because the JB3250 is a bolt-on J-Frame breaker, it requires a compatible Series C J-Frame mounting hardware kit to properly secure the line connections to the panelboard bus.
Are Westinghouse and Eaton JB3250 breakers interchangeable?
Yes. Eaton acquired the Westinghouse distribution and control business, so a JB3250 branded by Eaton, Cutler-Hammer, or Westinghouse is the exact same Series C J-Frame breaker and is physically and electrically interchangeable.
