EB2015 - 15Amp Circuit Breaker

EB2015 - 15Amp Circuit Breaker

The EB2015 is a 15 Amp, 2-pole thermal magnetic circuit breaker commonly used in electrical panels and distribution equipment manufactured before 1989. When your working with older electrical systems, the goal is often to maintain the original panel design and protection scheme rather than make unnecessary changes. The EB2015 was designed for exactly that purpose, providing the form, fit, and electrical ratings needed for compatible EB panel installations.

Many commercial buildings, schools, industrial facilities, and public-sector properties continue to operate electrical equipment that has been in service for decades. When a breaker requires replacement, matching the original specifications can help simplify maintenance and keep the system operating as intended. The EB2015 is frequently used during panel repairs, preventative maintenance projects, and restoration work where preserving compatibility is a priority.

As a 2-pole breaker, the EB2015 is designed for applications where both legs of a 120/240VAC circuit must be switched and protected together. It's commonly found serving dedicated branch circuits and other installations that require coordinated two-pole protection. With its 15 Amp rating and 10kA interrupting capacity, it is well suited for a variety of branch circuit applications found in legacy electrical systems.
