EHB2070L - 70Amp Circuit Breaker

EHB2070L - 70Amp Circuit Breaker

When you need a compatible replacement for an existing Type EHB circuit breaker, the EHB2070L offers the ratings and physical configuration required to keep your electrical system operating as intended. Designed for use in Type EHB panels manufactured before 1989, this 2-pole, 70 Amp thermal-magnetic circuit breaker provides dependable protection against overloads and short circuits while matching the original panel design. Its non-interchangeable trip unit helps maintain the factory-specified trip characteristics, making it a practical choice for maintaining legacy electrical equipment. With a 14kA interrupting rating at 480VAC, a 40°C ambient temperature rating, and both line and load terminals included, the EHB2070L is built to last and is well suited for maintaining compatible commercial and industrial electrical systems.
