Eaton FAZ-C5/3 - 5 A, 480 V, 3-Pole Circuit Breaker | AmpState

The Eaton FAZ-C5/3 is a 5 A, 480 V, 3-pole molded‑case circuit breaker designed to deliver dependable branch circuit overcurrent and short‑circuit protection in panelboards and load centers. With a compact footprint and a thermal‑magnetic trip unit, it provides stable protection across varying loads and temperatures while keeping valuable panel space available for other circuits.

Key design and protection features

• Compact molded-case design minimizes space usage in panel assemblies, helping you maximize enclosure capacity without sacrificing protection.
• 3-pole construction enables simultaneous disconnection of all phases, enhancing safety for 3‑phase distribution and equipment protection.
• Thermal‑magnetic trip unit delivers stable, repeatable protection by responding to both overloads (thermal) and short‑circuits (magnetic) across a broad range of operating conditions.
• 5 A rating is ideal for protecting smaller branch circuits or control circuits within panelboards and load centers.
• 480 V rating suits commercial and light industrial 3‑phase systems, aligning with many modern distribution schemes.
• OEM compatibility is built in—the FAZ-C5/3 is designed for use with matching Eaton OEM load centers and panelboards for straightforward installation and reliable performance.
