ED62B045 - 45Amp Circuit Breaker

ED62B045 - 45 Amp Circuit Breaker

The ED62B045 molded case circuit breaker provides dependable circuit protection for commercial and industrial electrical systems that demand consistent performance. This 45-amp, 2-pole breaker is built on the ED6 frame and is designed to interrupt fault currents quickly to help protect wiring, equipment, and connected loads. With an interrupting capacity of 25kA at 480VAC and 65kA at 240VAC, it is well-suited for applications where higher fault levels may be present.

Designed for bolt-on installation, the ED62B045 attaches securely within compatible panelboards, creating a solid electrical connection and reducing movement or vibration inside the panel. Load-side terminals are included, making installation easier for electricians and maintenance teams. The breaker is also HACR rated, meaning it can be used in heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration circuits commonly found in commercial facilities. Rated for 40°C operation and suitable for reverse feed, this breaker offers flexibility for a range of electrical distribution setups.

In day-to-day use, the ED62B045 is often chosen for panelboard distribution systems, HVAC equipment protection, and branch circuit applications where a dependable 45-amp breaker is required.
