B-LINE CRD316T82W – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Does the Eaton Series C CRD316T82W breaker come with lugs or terminals?
No. The CRD316T82W ships without terminals, so you order the lug or terminal kit separately to match your conductor size and quantity. On a 1600A three-pole R-frame that usually means multiple large parallel conductors or a bus connection per pole, so settle the termination method before the breaker lands on site.
2) What is the interrupting rating of the CRD316T82W at 480V?
65 kAIC at 480 Vac. The same breaker is rated 125 kAIC at 240 Vac and 50 kAIC at 600 Vac, with a maximum voltage rating of 600 Vac. Match the figure to the system voltage on your coordination study, not the highest number on the label.
3) Does this Eaton R-frame breaker have ground fault protection?
No. The CRD316T82W uses an electronic LSI trip unit, which gives long time, short time and instantaneous protection only. There is no ground fault (G) element, so if your drawings call for LSIG you need a different trip designation.
4) Will a 1600A R-frame Series C breaker fit in my existing switchboard section?
Check the cavity against 20 inches by 15.5 inches by 15.5 inches, which is the size of the CRD316T82W. It also weighs 102 pounds, so plan on mechanical lifting help and confirm the mounting pan and bracing are built for an R-frame device rather than a smaller L or N frame.
5) Is the CRD316T82W suitable for a 600V three-phase service?
It is rated to 600 Vac and is a three-pole device, so it suits 600V three-phase work, with 50 kAIC available fault current at that voltage. Above 50 kA on a 600V system you need a higher interrupting rating or series-rated arrangement.
6) Why choose an electronic trip breaker like this over a thermal magnetic one?
The electronic LSI trip unit on this R-frame breaker gives adjustable long time, short time and instantaneous settings, which is what lets you coordinate selectively with downstream feeders. A thermal magnetic breaker has far less adjustment and is the simpler choice on small branch circuits, not on a 1600A main or large feeder.
