EB3060 - 60Amp Circuit Breaker

EB3060 - 60Amp Circuit Breaker

When you're maintaining an older electrical distribution system, finding the correct replacement breaker is essential. The EB3060 60 Amp 3-Pole Type EB circuit breaker is designed for use in compatible Type EB panelboards manufactured before 1989, helping maintenance professionals and electricians preserve the original form, fit, and function of existing equipment.

Featuring a thermal-magnetic trip mechanism, the EB3060 provides protection against both overloads and short-circuit conditions. Its 60 amp rating and 3-pole configuration make it suitable for a variety of three-phase power distribution applications operating at 240VAC.

Whether you're performing preventative maintenance, replacing a failed breaker, or supporting the continued operation of a legacy electrical installation, the EB3060 delivers the ratings, compatibility, and functionality required for the job.
