Eaton FAZ-C6/1N - 6 A, 480 V, 1-Pole Circuit Breaker | AmpState

Eaton FAZ-C6/1N is a compact 6A, 480V, 1-pole molded case circuit breaker engineered to deliver dependable branch-circuit overcurrent and short-circuit protection in panelboards and loadcenters.

• Space-efficient design: The molded case construction minimizes footprint, freeing valuable panel space for additional circuits and wiring.
• Thermal-magnetic trip unit: Provides stable, repeatable protection by responding to both overloads and short circuits across typical temperature ranges, reducing nuisance trips and enhancing reliability.
• OEM-compatible: Designed to drop into matching OEM load centers and panelboards, making replacements and upgrades straightforward without compromising protection or fit.
• Versatile application: Ideal for residential, commercial, and light industrial circuits that require reliable 6A protection at 480V.

Technical snapshot

• Type: Thermal-magnetic molded case circuit breaker
• Amperage rating: 6 A
• Voltage rating: 480 V
• Number of poles: 1
• Part number: FAZ-C6/1N
• Application: Branch circuit overcurrent and short-circuit protection

Practical use cases

• Replacing a failed or worn 1-pole breaker in a 480V panelboard or loadcenter to restore protection for a single-phase circuit.
• Upgrading control circuits in commercial or light industrial equipment that operate at 480V, with a compact form factor that fits tight panel spaces.
• Providing reliable protection for lighting feeders or small machinery circuits in offices, retail spaces, or workshops where space efficiency matters.

Why this matters: the thermal-magnetic trip mechanism delivers precise protection by quickly reacting to short circuits while accommodating normal inrush and environmental temperature changes. The result is safer electrical distribution, reduced downtime, and more predictable maintenance for your systems.

Tips for installation and compatibility

• Verify that your panelboard/loadcenter is designed for 480V, 1-pole breakers of this type and that FAZ-C6/1N matches the OEM specification for your enclosure.
• Perform proper wiring with correct torque and termination practices to ensure secure, code-compliant connections.
• Label circuits clearly to simplify future servicing and inspections and to maintain clear protection boundaries across the panel.
