Eaton HFD2020 V - 20 A, 600 V, 2-Pole Bolt-On Circuit Breaker | AmpState

Engineered by Eaton, the HFD2020V is a 20A, 600V, 2-pole bolt-on molded case circuit breaker designed to deliver dependable branch-circuit protection for panelboards and load centers. Its robust bolt-on mounting creates a rigid, vibration-resistant connection to the bus, helping maintain consistent protection even in installations with equipment movement or noise.

Key advantages

• Bolt-on mounting: ensures a secure, vibration-resistant bus connection for stable protection over time.
• Thermal-magnetic trip unit: provides stable, repeatable protection against overloads and short circuits, with fast magnetic response for fault conditions.
• 2-pole design: guards both hot lines in 120/240V systems, delivering comprehensive circuit protection.
• 600V rating: suitable for residential, commercial, and light industrial panels where higher voltage tolerance is required.
• OEM compatibility: engineered to match Eaton’s OEM loadcenters and panelboards for a seamless replacement or upgrade.
