PDG21M0080TFFJ - 80 Amp Circuit Breaker

PDG21M0080TFFJ - 80 Amp Circuit Breaker

When your application calls for an 80-amp, single-pole molded-case circuit breaker, the Eaton PDG21M0080TFFJ offers a straightforward option from the Power Defense line. This Frame 2 circuit breaker is rated at 80A with an interrupting capacity of 65 kA at 277 VAC. It has a fixed trip and comes with line and load lugs, so you get a clearly defined breaker configuration without adjustable trip settings to deal with. At approximately 1.38 inches high, 6 inches wide, and 3.5 inches deep, the PDG21M0080TFFJ packs its circuit protection capabilities into a relatively compact design. It's a practical choice for maintenance, replacement, and other compatible electrical distribution applications that require these exact ratings. If you're replacing an existing breaker, matching the complete PDG21M0080TFFJ catalog number along with the amperage, poles, voltage, interrupting rating, and connection type is important—two breakers can look very similar and still have different electrical specifications.

Key Features and Benefits

Material Compliance and Certifications

• The PDG21M0080TFFJ is an Eaton Power Defense molded case circuit breaker. Certification and material compliance requirements can vary depending on the equipment and application. If your project requires a particular UL, IEC, RoHS, REACH, or other compliance designation, check the current manufacturer documentation for this exact part number rather than assuming certification based on other breakers in the same product family.
  

Where It Works Best

• The Eaton PDG21M0080TFFJ makes sense for compatible commercial and industrial electrical systems that specifically require an 80A, 1-pole breaker with a 65kA rating at 277 VAC. It can meet replacement and maintenance needs, as well as properly engineered new installations, where its Frame 2 configuration and electrical characteristics match the equipment requirements.
  
• Replacing an existing breaker? The catalog number is a good place to start, but don't stop there. Check the pole count, amperage, voltage, interrupting rating, trip type, connections, and physical dimensions against the breaker being replaced and the equipment specifications. A breaker that fits physically isn't necessarily the correct electrical match.
