Schneider Electric EGB14030 30A 1P Circuit Breaker

Product Description

The SCHNEIDER ELECTRIC EGB14030 is a single-pole, 30-ampere thermal magnetic miniature circuit breaker designed for branch-circuit protection in lighting panelboard applications. Built to E-frame specifications, it carries voltage ratings of 120/240/277 VAC at 50/60 Hz under UL/CSA standards and 240/415 VAC at 50/60 Hz under IEC. Interrupting ratings reach 65 kiloamperes at 120 VAC and 35 kiloamperes at 120/240/277 VAC. The breaker uses a bolt-on installation method and includes the VISI-Trip feature for quick visual confirmation of a tripped state. Licensed electricians install this breaker as part of branch-circuit work in commercial and residential lighting panel assemblies.

The EGB14030 is intended for use in Class 515 NF Series Panelboards with current ratings ranging from 15 to 125 amperes. It is well suited for lighting branch circuits in commercial occupancies where 277-volt single-phase circuits are common, such as fluorescent and LED fixture feeds in office buildings, retail spaces, and industrial facilities. The trip setting range of 270 to 875 amperes provides reliable overcurrent protection across typical lighting load profiles. Optional factory-installed electrical accessories include a 120 VAC shunt trip, a 1A/1B auxiliary switch, and a normally open alarm switch.

Compatibility

Designed for use in Class 515 NF Series Panelboards by Square D. Rated for systems up to 277 VAC single phase under UL and CSA approvals.

Installation Notes

Installation must be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and applicable local codes. De-energize the panelboard completely and verify absence of voltage with a calibrated tester before handling the breaker or terminating conductors. Confirm conductor sizing meets NEC ampacity requirements for the connected load before torquing terminals. Do not install the breaker in panelboard configurations or voltage systems outside its published ratings.
