BR380 - 80 Amp Circuit Breaker

BR380 - 80 Amp Circuit Breaker

The Eaton BR380 is an 80 Amp, three-pole thermal magnetic circuit breaker designed for use in compatible Eaton Type BR loadcenters. It provides protection against overloads and short circuits while allowing all three poles to trip together when a fault occurs. This common-trip operation is important in three-phase electrical systems, where disconnecting all conductors simultaneously helps protect connected equipment and maintain safe operation.

The BR380 is commonly used for larger electrical loads found in commercial buildings, workshops, industrial facilities, and other applications where dependable circuit protection is required. Its 80 Amp rating makes it a practical choice for equipment such as HVAC systems, motors, distribution panels, subpanels, and machinery that place greater demands on an electrical system.

You'll find the BR380 in a wide range of commercial, industrial, agricultural, and larger residential installations. For projects where compatibility with Eaton Type BR panels is important, it provides a straightforward solution backed by the proven performance of the Type BR platform.
