EB1015 - 15Amp Circuit Breaker

EB1015 - 15Amp Circuit Breaker

The EB1015 is a 15 Amp, single-pole thermal magnetic circuit breaker commonly used in electrical panels and distribution equipment manufactured before 1989. When you're maintaining older electrical systems, finding the correct replacement breaker is often less about changing the system and more about preserving the original design. That's where the EB1015 fits in—providing the form, fit, and electrical ratings needed to keep compatible equipment operating as intended.

Many older commercial buildings, industrial facilities, and institutional properties continue to rely on electrical panels that have been in service for decades. When a breaker requires replacement, matching the original breaker type helps maintain consistency throughout the panel and avoids unnecessary modifications.

With a 15 Amp rating, 120VAC capacity, and 10kA interrupting rating, the EB1015 is suitable for many standard branch circuit applications found in legacy electrical systems. The included load terminals can help simplify replacement work, especially when servicing existing panels where maintaining the original configuration is important.
