ED42B015 - 15Amp Circuit Breaker

ED42B015 - 15 Amp Circuit Breaker

The ED42B015 molded case circuit breaker is a dependable solution for protecting electrical distribution systems from overloads and short circuits in commercial and industrial environments. Built in the Sentron-style ED4 frame, this 2-pole, 15-amp breaker is engineered for consistent performance and reliable circuit protection where system uptime matters. Its bolt-on mounting design provides a secure connection to compatible panelboards, helping reduce movement and maintain stable electrical contact over time. Rated at 65kA interrupting capacity at 240VAC and 18kA at 480VAC, the ED42B015 is designed to safely interrupt high fault currents while maintaining safe operation. The breaker also includes load-side terminals for straightforward installation, and its HACR rating makes it suitable for heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration equipment applications. Designed for operation at 40°C ambient temperature and approved for reverse feed use, this breaker offers installation flexibility across a wide range of electrical systems.
