Eaton PDG23P0040TFFL - 40 A, 600 V, 3-Pole Circuit Breaker | AmpState

Introducing the Eaton PDG23P0040TFFL — a 40A, 600V, 3-pole molded case circuit breaker designed to deliver dependable overcurrent and short-circuit protection right where you need it: panelboards and load centers. Built for real-world electrical environments, this breaker helps you protect branch circuits with precision and ease.

Why this breaker stands out

• Compact molded-case design frees up valuable panel space and simplifies installation in tight enclosures, making it a smart upgrade for aging panels or new installations.
• Thermal-magnetic trip unit delivers stable, repeatable protection: the thermal element handles overloads with predictable timing, while the magnetic element delivers a fast response to short circuits, reducing the risk of damage and downtime.
• 3-pole configuration is ideal for balanced 3-phase distribution, enabling clean, coordinated protection for motors, compressors, and multi-phase circuits common in commercial and light industrial settings.
• OEM-compatible design and panelboard/panelboard compatibility ensure reliable replacement and seamless integration with matching load centers from the same family, minimizing compatibility concerns during upgrades.
