EC3015 - 15Amp Circuit Breaker

EC3015 - 15Amp Circuit Breaker

When you're maintaining an existing electrical distribution system, finding a circuit breaker that matches the original specifications is critical. The EC3015 15 Amp 3-Pole Circuit Breaker is designed for applications that require a compatible Type EC thermal-magnetic breaker, helping keep electrical systems operating as intended without altering the original configuration.

This breaker combines a 15 Amp rating, 3-pole design, and 10kA interrupting capacity at 240VAC to provide dependable circuit protection in commercial, industrial, and institutional environments. Its thermal-magnetic design responds to both overload conditions and short circuits, helping protect connected equipment and conductors from electrical faults. Because it features a non-interchangeable trip unit, the EC3015 maintains the protection characteristics specified for the original installation.
