C315 - 15Amp Circuit Breaker

C315 - 15Amp Circuit Breaker

The C315 is a 15 Amp, 3-pole circuit breaker used in 240VAC three-phase electrical systems. With a common trip design, all three poles open together when a fault occurs. This configuration is typically used on three-phase circuits where disconnecting all phases at the same time is required.

Its plug-on construction allows it to fit into compatible panels without modifying the existing setup. The 15 Amp rating is commonly found on smaller three-phase branch circuits serving equipment such as HVAC controls, refrigeration systems, pumps, compressors, motor loads, and control panels.

The breaker is HACR rated for approved heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration applications and features a 10kA interrupting capacity at 240VAC. In many facilities, breakers like the C315 remain in service for years, which makes matching the correct breaker type, amperage, and pole configuration important when your performing maintenance or replacing existing equipment.
