ED23B070L - 70Amp Circuit Breaker

ED23B070L - 70 Amp Circuit Breaker

The ED23B070L is a 70-amp, 3-pole molded case circuit breaker designed for use in electrical distribution systems that require dependable circuit protection and compatibility with ED2 frame installations. Built in the Sentron style, this breaker provides thermal-magnetic protection to help safeguard conductors and connected equipment from overloads and short circuits. With a 10kA interrupting rating at 240VAC, it is commonly used in commercial and industrial panelboards where reliable protection and consistent fit are required. The breaker includes line- and load-side terminals, making installation straightforward in existing compatible equipment. Rated for 40°C environments and HACR applications, the ED23B070L is also suitable for reverse feed, allowing flexible installation in systems where back-feeding may be required. Like many molded case breakers built for electrical distribution systems, these units are designed with durability in mind and built to last when used within their specified ratings.
