Westinghouse FDB3035 - 35A, 3-Pole, Circuit Breaker

Westinghouse FDB3035 — a 35A, 3-Pole circuit breaker engineered for dependable overcurrent protection in three-phase power systems. This unit is built for panelboards, switchboards, and control panels, making it a versatile choice for industrial, commercial, and OEM environments where safeguarding equipment and maintaining uptime matter most.

Key advantages of the FDB3035 include:

• 3-Pole configuration delivers coordinated protection across all three phases, helping prevent phase imbalance and minimizing the risk of damage to motors, drives, and feeders.
• 35A current rating is well-suited for motor circuits, distribution feeders, and branch circuits that require reliable protection without nuisance tripping.
• Designed for flexible installation in panelboards, switchboards, and control panels, streamlining wiring and reducing panel clutter in multi-phase systems.
• Built for durable, safe operation in demanding environments, providing consistent performance in industrial, commercial, and OEM applications.

Who benefits from the Westinghouse FDB3035

• Electrical engineers and technicians selecting a robust overcurrent protection device for new builds or panel upgrades.
• Facility managers overseeing motor control centers and distribution panels that rely on reliable trip protection.
• OEM integrators seeking a trusted, three-phase breaker to integrate into control systems and machinery.

Practical use cases and scenarios

• Three-phase motor circuits in manufacturing lines requiring protection against overloads and short circuits.
• Branch circuits feeding critical equipment in distribution panels where coordinated phase protection reduces electrical faults.
• Control panel applications where a single device must guard all three power lines, simplifying design and maintenance.

Why choose this Westinghouse model over alternatives? The FDB3035 provides true three-phase protection with a single device, reducing the number of individual breakers needed and helping keep panels organized. Its 35A rating aligns well with common motor and feeder applications, offering a balanced mix of protection and operational practicality without over-engineering the solution.
