Eaton Power Defense Circuit Breaker PDG23F0060P2MJ Road Test - Part 1 Installation

rsc

6 Aug 2020

I'll need to do this road test in parts, because it may get complicated.

The first task is installation.  This will require removal of the existing breaker and replace it with the Power Defense breaker.

The PDG23F0060P2MJ is a frame size larger than the existing breaker, so that may be a challenge.

Here is the existing breaker:

Here is the enclosure:

The PDG23F0060P2MJ arrived in a well packaged box.

The contents were a PDG23F0060P2MJ, 4 mounting screws, a manual of sorts,

and a Neutral Voltage Sensor Module.

After some rearrangement of the existing components and wires, I managed to fit the PDG2 into the panel.

The next task will be to determine how to wire up the trip unit, ModBus, and accessory relay contacts.

Stay tuned to this channel...........

    Nice job of fitting it in. It looks like quite a beast. I am curious why they designed it not to fit in a standard slot. DAB

    Nice looking installation.  It was a tight squeeze but it looks like you made it.

     

    I look forward to more of your blogs on this,
