PDG23M0050TFFL - 50 Amp Circuit Breaker

PDG23M0050TFFL - 50 Amp Circuit Breaker

If you're looking for an Eaton PDG23M0050TFFL, the key specifications are pretty straightforward. This Power Defense molded-case circuit breaker is a Frame 2 model rated at 50 amps, with 3 poles and an interrupting rating of 65 kA at 480 VAC. It comes with a fixed trip and load lugs, making it a practical choice for compatible commercial and industrial electrical systems that require this specific setup. The breaker measures 4.19 inches high, 6 inches wide, and 3.5 inches deep, so those dimensions are worth checking when you're matching it to existing equipment. For replacement jobs in particular, don't go by amperage alone—the frame, number of poles, voltage and interrupting rating, trip configuration, connections, and physical size all matter. When those requirements call for a 50A Eaton Power Defense Frame 2 breaker, the PDG23M0050TFFL meets the application requirements.

Key Features and Benefits

• 50-amp rating for electrical equipment designed around this current requirement.
• 3-pole design suited to compatible three-phase applications.
• 65kA interrupting rating at 480 VAC for systems requiring this level of fault-current interruption.
• Fixed trip configuration provides a defined trip rating without field-adjustable settings.
• Load lugs included for the applicable connection arrangement.
• The Power Defense Frame 2 design makes it easier to identify and match the breaker to compatible equipment.
• At 4.19" H x 6.0" W x 3.5" D, its physical dimensions can be checked before installation or replacement.

Material Compliance and Certifications

• Certification and material-compliance requirements can vary from one installation or project to another. For the PDG23M0050TFFL, any required regulatory approvals, certification marks, environmental compliance information, or applicable standards should be confirmed using the breaker label and current manufacturer documentation for this exact part number. This avoids relying on specifications from a similar Power Defense model, which may not have the same approvals.

Where It Works Best

• The PDG23M0050TFFL is intended for compatible electrical systems that require a 3-pole, 50A molded case circuit breaker with a 65kA rating at 480 VAC. This can include commercial or industrial power distribution equipment, machinery, control equipment, and other three-phase applications rated for its Frame 2 configuration.
  
• If you're matching a replacement breaker, check more than the PDG23M0050TFFL part number. Compare the 50A rating, three-pole, Frame 2 configuration, 65kA @ 480 VAC rating, fixed trip, load lugs, and dimensions with the equipment requirements. Final selection and installation should follow the equipment manufacturer's specifications, applicable electrical codes, and the requirements of the electrical system.
