Eaton HFDE308036 - 80 A, 480 V, 3-Pole Bolt-On Circuit Breaker | AmpState

Meet the Eaton HFDE308036—a purpose‑built 80 A, 480 V, 3‑pole bolt‑on molded case circuit breaker designed to protect your electrical system with precision. Engineered for dependable branch circuit overcurrent and short‑circuit protection, it sits at the heart of panelboards and load centers where reliability matters most.

Secure, vibration‑resistant mounting

The bolt‑on mounting feature delivers a rigid bus connection, resisting vibration and movement that can loosen connections over time. This means fewer nuisance trips and a stable, long‑lasting installation even in environments with equipment that generates vibration or mechanical activity.

Thermal‑magnetic protection you can trust

Equipped with a thermal‑magnetic trip unit, the HFDE308036 provides stable, repeatable protection across a range of temperatures and load conditions. The thermal element handles normal overloads with predictable response, while the magnetic element rapidly clears short circuits, helping protect downstream equipment and reduce downtime.

Designed for OEM compatibility

Compatible with matching Eaton OEM load centers and panelboards, this 3‑pole breaker fits into established Eaton systems with minimal fuss. Its 480 V rating and 3‑pole configuration make it ideal for commercial and light industrial applications that demand solid performance at higher voltages.
