Eaton type BR circuit breaker limited warranty June 2024
70 A amperage rating delivers reliable service for small-to-medium panels while keeping footprint manageable. This helps engineers avoid oversizing feeders and minimizes downstream wiring costs. Applications include single-phase 120/240 V feeds, small service equipment, and branch circuits where space is constrained, enabling predictable install times and simpler panel schedules. Two spaces and four circuits provide essential layout flexibility for BR 1-inch breakers. The configuration supports future expansion, straightforward phasing, and organized wiring routes in retrofit jobs, while improving thermal performance by controlling circuit density within a single enclosure. Aluminum bus material reduces weight and enhances handling during field installation, offering good conductivity and corrosion resistance. The lighter construction translates to lower labor costs and safer transport, especially on multi-location builds, and is compatible with Cu/Al conductors sized #8-2 AWG for versatile wiring choices. NEMA 1 metallic enclosure delivers indoor protection against dust and incidental contact, aligning with standard electrical rooms in offices, schools, and light industry. The rugged enclosure supports flush mounting for a sleek wall installation and simplifies mounting clearances around existing equipment, reinforced by UL certifications. Ground bar kit is priced separately, offering flexible grounding options and easier code-compliant bonding when the unit is used as service equipment, while supporting Type BR 1-inch breakers for broad catalog compatibility. With a 10 kAIC interrupt rating and 120/240 V operation, this loadcenter provides robust fault current protection for common commercial and residential loads, while accepting #8-2 AWG Cu/Al conductors for economical yet reliable wiring. Cover not included keeps upfront costs down, allowing tailored accessory selection for project-specific aesthetics and protection.
