Westinghouse EHB2070 - 70A, 2-Pole, Circuit Breaker

Meet the Westinghouse EHB2070, a 70A, 2-pole circuit breaker designed to deliver dependable overcurrent protection where it counts—from dense panel layouts to mission-critical motor control centers. Built for industrial, commercial, and OEM environments, this breaker keeps distribution panels, switchboards, and control panels operating safely and efficiently.

Why the Westinghouse EHB2070 stands out

• 70A current rating provides robust protection for demanding circuits without unnecessary nuisance tripping.
• 2-Pole design protects both conductors in a two-phase circuit, ensuring synchronized shut-off and streamlined wiring in compact panels.
• Versatile installation suitable for panelboards, switchboards, and control panels—ideal for retrofits, upgrades, and new builds.
• Industrial-grade reliability built to endure the rigors of demanding environments while maintaining consistent performance.

Use cases and practical applications

• Industrial feeders feeding motor control centers (MCCs) and distribution panels that require a sturdy 70A protection solution.
• Commercial equipment enclosures where space is at a premium and two-pole protection is necessary for safe operation.
• OEM equipment assemblies needing a ready-to-install breaker that simplifies wiring and reduces assembly time.

How this breaker improves your operation

The EHB2070 provides precise overcurrent protection for two hot conductors, helping to prevent damage to wires, motors, and downstream devices during overloads or faults. In control panels, it supports reliable shutdown sequences, contributing to safer maintenance and reduced downtime. By consolidating protection into a compact, two-pole unit, it also helps optimize space inside crowded electrical enclosures.

Installation considerations

• Verify compatibility with your panelboard, switchboard, or control panel’s bus and mounting style before installation.
• Plan for straightforward replacement in existing two-pole circuits to minimize downtime and wiring changes.
