Eaton FAZ-C8/1N - 8 A, 480 V, 1-Pole Circuit Breaker | AmpState

Meet the Eaton FAZ-C8/1N — a compact 8A, 480V, 1-pole molded case circuit breaker engineered for dependable branch circuit protection in panelboards and loadcenters. Its thermal-magnetic trip unit delivers stable, repeatable protection against overcurrent and short circuits, helping protect wiring and connected equipment across commercial and light industrial environments.

Why this breaker stands out

• Space‑efficient molded case design: Its compact form fits tight panel spaces, enabling smarter, cleaner panel layouts without sacrificing protection.
• Thermal-magnetic trip unit: Combines time‑delay overload sensing with instantaneous magnetic trip for fast short‑circuit response, reducing arc fault risk and equipment damage.
• 1‑pole, 480V rated: Specifically suited for single‑phase circuits in 480V systems, making it ideal for commercial electrical rails, lighting, and control circuits in modern facilities.
• 8A amperage rating: Provides precise current limitation for small to medium loads, helping to prevent nuisance tripping while safeguarding wiring and devices.
• OEM compatibility: Designed to be compatible with matching Eaton OEM loadcenters and panelboards, ensuring reliable fit, correct trip curves, and straightforward installation.
• Versatile across environments: Suitable for residential, commercial, and light industrial applications where space, reliability, and coordinated protection matter.

Practical use cases

• In a commercial office building, protect a 480V control circuit or a dedicated lighting feed within a panelboard without consuming extra space.
• As part of an Eaton‑ecosystem retrofit, replace a failed or obsolete breaker with a like‑for‑like FAZ‑C8/1N to maintain consistent trip characteristics and panel coordination.
• In small industrial setups, use for a single‑phase 480V circuit that powers pumps, fans, or驱动器 accessories while preserving panel density.
