EHB2100L - 100Amp Circuit Breaker

EHB2100L - 100Amp Circuit Breaker

Finding the right replacement circuit breaker for an existing electrical system is about more than matching the amperage. The EHB2100L is a 2-pole, 100 Amp Type EHB thermal-magnetic circuit breaker designed to provide the proper form, fit, and function as a replacement for compatible Type EHB panelboards manufactured before 1989. If you're maintaining or repairing an existing electrical distribution system, using the correct breaker helps preserve the original panel configuration while delivering the circuit protection the equipment was designed to provide.

This breaker features a thermal-magnetic trip mechanism, combining thermal protection for overload conditions with magnetic protection that reacts quickly to short circuits. Whether you're replacing a failed breaker during routine maintenance or servicing an older facility, this breaker offers the compatibility and ratings needed for the job.
