Eaton FAZ-D8/3N - 8 A, 480 V, 3-Pole Circuit Breaker | AmpState

Eaton FAZ-D8/3N is an 8A, 480V, 3-pole molded case circuit breaker designed to deliver dependable branch circuit overcurrent and short-circuit protection in panelboards and load centers.

Built around a compact molded-case design, it helps you maximize panel space without sacrificing protection. The thermal-magnetic trip unit provides stable, repeatable protection performance, reacting to overloads with a controlled delay and snapping shut on short circuits to minimize damage and downtime.

• Compact, panel-friendly form factor: Slim profile that fits densely packed panelboards and load centers.
• Thermal-magnetic trip: Combines heat-based overload protection with instantaneous magnetic trip for fast, reliable responses.
• Three-pole configuration: Simultaneous disconnection of all three conductors, ideal for 3-phase systems.
• 8A, 480V rating: Suited for lower-current branch circuits within higher-voltage commercial or light industrial environments.
• OEM-compatible: Designed to be used with matching OEM load centers and panelboards for seamless integration.
• Versatile applications: Appropriate for residential, commercial, and light industrial protection needs.
