PDG22G0100TFFJ - 100 Amp Circuit Breaker

PDG22G0100TFFJ - 100 Amp Circuit Breaker

The Eaton PDG22G0100TFFJ is a 100-amp, 2-pole molded case circuit breaker from the Power Defense line. Built on the Frame 2 platform, it provides 35 kAIC interrupting capacity at 480 VAC and uses a fixed thermal-magnetic trip for overload and short-circuit protection. It also comes with standard line and load terminals. What does that mean in practical terms? You get a straightforward breaker with clearly defined protection characteristics and no adjustable electronic trip settings to configure. The PDG22G0100TFFJ is a good fit for compatible commercial and industrial electrical equipment where a 100A, two-pole breaker with this specific frame, voltage, and interrupting rating is called for. It carries a maximum voltage rating of 600 VAC and is part of Eaton's globally rated Power Defense family. For replacement work, matching the complete PDG22G0100TFFJ catalog number is important. Still, you'll also want to compare the frame size, amperage, number of poles, trip configuration, AIC rating, terminals, and dimensions to those of the breaker being replaced.

Key Features and Benefits

• 100-amp rating for compatible commercial and industrial circuits.
• 2-pole design protects two poles.
• 35 kAIC at 480 VAC provides substantial interrupting capacity for applications with higher available fault current.
• Fixed thermal-magnetic trip provides overload and short-circuit protection without adjustable electronic settings.
• Frame 2 Power Defense design makes it suitable for equipment designed around this breaker frame.
• Standard line and load terminals are included for compatible connections.
• 600 VAC maximum voltage rating expands its usefulness across qualifying electrical applications.
• Clearly identified electrical ratings make it easier to compare against an existing breaker or equipment specification.

Material Compliance and Certifications

• The PDG22G0100TFFJ is RoHS-compliant and is associated with recognized standards and certifications, including UL 489, CSA, IEC 60947-2, and CCC. These certifications can be important when you're matching a circuit breaker to equipment with specific regulatory or electrical requirements.
• As with any circuit breaker, the certifications are only part of the selection process. The breaker must also have the correct electrical ratings and be compatible with the equipment and installation.

Where It Works Best

• This breaker is suitable for commercial and industrial power distribution, electrical panels, machinery, control equipment, and other compatible electrical systems that require a 100A, two-pole molded-case breaker.
• It's also a practical replacement for an existing PDG22G0100TFFJ. Don't rely on amperage alone, though. Two 100A breakers can have very different characteristics. Check the complete part number, pole count, Frame 2 configuration, voltage, 35 kAIC rating at 480 VAC, trip type, terminals, and physical size.
• When those specifications align with the equipment requirements, the Eaton PDG22G0100TFFJ offers a straightforward solution for reliable circuit protection. Final breaker selection and installation should always follow applicable electrical codes and be handled or verified by qualified electrical personnel.
