PDG23M0045TFFL - 45 Amp Circuit Breaker

PDG23M0045TFFL - 45 Amp Circuit Breaker

Need a 45-amp, 3-pole breaker with serious interrupting capacity? The Eaton PDG23M0045TFFL is a Power Defense molded-case circuit breaker designed for applications requiring 65 kA at 480 VAC. It uses Eaton's Frame 2 design and comes with fixed trip and load lugs, providing a straightforward configuration for compatible commercial and industrial electrical systems. The breaker measures 4.19 inches high, 6 inches wide, and 3.5 inches deep, so it's easy to check the physical dimensions against your existing equipment before making a replacement. For maintenance teams, electricians, and facility professionals, the important part is getting the details right: 45A, three poles, 65kA at 480 VAC, fixed trip, and Frame 2. If those specifications match your equipment's requirements, the PDG23M0045TFFL is designed to provide dependable circuit protection without unnecessary complexity.

• Replacing an existing breaker? Don't rely on amperage alone. Check the PDG23M0045TFFL part number, frame, poles, voltage, A.I.C. rating, trip configuration, lug arrangement, and dimensions against the breaker and equipment you already have. A few minutes spent verifying those details can help avoid choosing a breaker that looks similar but isn't the right match.
