EB2070 - 70Amp Circuit Breaker

EB2070 - 70Amp Circuit Breaker

The EB2070 is a 70 Amp 2-pole thermal-magnetic circuit breaker designed for use in compatible Type EB electrical panels manufactured before 1989. When you're maintaining or repairing an older electrical system, finding the correct replacement breaker is often the most important part of keeping the installation unchanged. The EB2070 helps accomplish exactly that by providing the same style, pole configuration, and electrical ratings required for many legacy panel applications.

This breaker features a thermal-magnetic trip mechanism, which combines overload protection and short-circuit protection in a single device. The non-interchangeable trip unit is factory matched to the breaker, helping maintain the original operating characteristics of the installation. With a 10kA interrupting rating at 120/240VAC, the EB2070 is suitable for a wide range of residential, commercial, and light industrial applications where this rating is required.
