EB1030 - 30Amp Circuit Breaker

EB1030 - 30Amp Circuit Breaker

The EB1030 is a 30 Amp, single-pole thermal magnetic circuit breaker commonly used in electrical panels and distribution equipment manufactured before 1989. If you're maintaining an older electrical system, finding the correct replacement breaker is often about preserving compatibility rather than making changes to equipment that continues to do its job. The EB1030 was designed for exactly that purpose, helping maintain the original panel configuration while providing the electrical ratings required for compatible EB installations.

Many commercial buildings, schools, industrial facilities, and government properties still rely on electrical panels that have been operating reliably for decades. When a breaker needs replacement, matching the original specifications can help simplify maintenance and keep the system consistent with its original design. The EB1030 is frequently used for panel repairs, preventative maintenance, and restoration projects where maintaining the existing protection scheme is a priority.

With a 30 Amp rating, 120VAC capacity, and 10kA interrupting rating, the EB1030 is well suited for many branch circuit applications found in legacy electrical systems. The included load terminals can help make replacement work more efficient when servicing compatible panelboards and load centers.
