PDG23M0080TFFL - 80 Amp Circuit Breaker

PDG23M0080TFFL - 80 Amp Circuit Breaker

The Eaton PDG23M0080TFFL is an 80A, 3-pole molded case circuit breaker from the Power Defense family. This particular model is a Frame 2 breaker with a fixed trip, load lugs, and a 65kA interrupting rating at 480 VAC. It's a straightforward choice when those specifications match the electrical equipment you're working with. The breaker measures 4.19 inches high, 6 inches wide, and 3.5 inches deep, which is worth checking if you're dealing with an existing installation where space and fit are already established. For replacement jobs, the safest approach is to compare the complete PDG23M0080TFFL part number with the breaker being replaced. Don't stop at 80 amps and three poles. Frame size, trip type, interrupting rating, voltage, lug configuration, and physical dimensions can all matter when determining whether a breaker is right for a particular application.

Material Compliance and Certifications

• The PDG23M0080TFFL is part of Eaton's Global Rated Power Defense molded case circuit breaker line. If a job calls for a particular certification, agency approval, or material compliance standard, check the documentation and product markings for the exact part number. Requirements can differ from one installation to another, so it's better to verify the specific breaker rather than assume that specifications for another model in the same product family apply.

Where It Works Best

• This breaker makes sense for commercial and industrial electrical systems where the specified equipment calls for an 80A, 3-pole molded-case circuit breaker with a fixed trip and a 65kA interrupting capacity at 480 VAC. It may be suitable for compatible power distribution equipment, machinery, and other electrical systems that require these ratings and the Frame 2 configuration.
  
• If you're replacing an existing breaker, here's the detail that matters most: match the breaker, not just the amperage. An 80A, 3-pole breaker isn't necessarily a direct substitute for every other 80A, 3-pole model. Compare the existing unit with PDG23M0080TFFL, including its 80A rating, three-pole configuration, Frame 2 design, fixed trip, 65kA rating at 480 VAC, load lugs, and dimensions. That simple check can prevent finding out during installation that an otherwise similar-looking breaker isn't the right fit.
