Eaton’s BR two-pole ground fault circuit breaker redesign introduces a new approach to ground fault protection that greatly decreases tripping events, making it ideal for variable frequency drives (VFDs) and 240 V equipment. The microprocessor-based design makes decisions about leakage and responds appropriately in milliseconds, providing time for the circuit breaker to disregard transient conditions that could lead to unwanted tripping. In addition, troubleshooting is faster and more accurate with the addition of 12 new trip code notifications.
Diagnose and resolve tripping events faster
Eaton's BR two-pole ground fault circuit breaker relies on 12 new trip code notifications to improve the accuracy of trip diagnosis, aid troubleshooting efforts during maintenance and enable prompt resolution of issues. With specific indicators and improved diagnostic capabilities, the codes enable the pinpointing of complex occurrences and overloads for quick identification of error conditions including hardware and microprocessor malfunctions, as well as power quality issues such as over-voltage, over-current and ground fault issues.
Reduce costs with more efficient bill of materials
Eaton’s BR two-pole ground fault circuit breaker boasts an improved series rating, offering additional combinations up to 60 A. And with higher interrupts and #3AWG lugs that reduce wiring costs, the circuit breaker allows for more cost-efficient project bills of material, most notably for multi-family jobs.
