CED63B070 - 70Amp Circuit Breaker

CED63B070 - 70 Amp Circuit Breaker

The CED63B070 is a 70-amp, 3-pole molded case circuit breaker designed for dependable overcurrent protection in commercial and industrial distribution systems. Built on the CED6 frame, this fuseless current-limiting breaker provides reliable interruption capacity with ratings up to 200k A.I.C. at 240VAC and 480VAC, and 100k A.I.C. at 600VAC, making it well-suited for systems where high fault current may be present. Designed for bolt-on mounting and including load-side terminals, the CED63B070 offers secure installation and proper electrical contact within compatible panelboards and switchboards. Rated for operation at 40°C and suitable for reverse feed applications, this breaker is constructed for long service life and consistent protection in demanding environments.

Whether you’re replacing an existing CED6 frame unit or maintaining legacy distribution equipment, the CED63B070 is manufactured to meet original form, fit, and function requirements—helping maintain system integrity without unnecessary modifications.
