B-LINE HFDDC2080L – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Can the Eaton HFDDC2080L breaker be used on a 250 Vdc solar PV circuit?
Yes. The HFDDC2080L is an Eaton Series C DC/PvGard molded case breaker rated 250 Vdc as well as 600 Vac, and Eaton classes it as a Vdc device for high interrupting capacity in DC applications. It is a two-pole, 80A breaker, so on a DC circuit both poles are used in series for the single DC circuit in typical PV practice. Do not apply it above 250 Vdc.
2) What is the interrupting rating on the HFD 80 amp two-pole breaker?
42 kAIC at 600 Vac. The HFD suffix is Eaton's high interrupting capacity F-frame class, which is what you specify when the available fault current at the panel exceeds what a standard FD frame breaker can clear.
3) Will an F-frame 80A breaker physically fit the space I have in my enclosure?
The breaker measures 6 in high, 2.75 in wide and 3.38 in deep, and weighs 3 lb. That is the standard Eaton F-frame footprint, so if the panel or enclosure is already prepped for an F-frame two-pole breaker the mounting works out.
4) Does this Eaton breaker come with lugs, or do I have to order terminals separately?
Line and load terminals are included, and it ships as a complete breaker rather than a breaker mechanism needing separate assembly. Confirm the lug wire range suits the conductor size you are landing for an 80A circuit.
5) Is the trip unit on the HFDDC2080L adjustable?
No. It is a fixed thermal, fixed magnetic trip breaker, so the 80A thermal setting and the instantaneous magnetic pickup are both factory set with nothing to dial in the field. If your coordination study calls for an adjustable instantaneous setting, this is the wrong trip type and you need an adjustable-magnetic version of the frame.
6) Can I use a standard AC molded case breaker instead on a DC PV circuit?
Not interchangeably. A DC arc does not self-extinguish at a current zero the way an AC arc does, which is why Eaton builds the DC/PvGard version with a specific 250 Vdc rating alongside the 600 Vac rating. Use a breaker that carries a published DC voltage rating for the DC side of a PV system; the HFDDC2080L is rated for both.
