Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Why choose a 65kA-rated breaker for a 30A circuit?
A: The interrupting capacity must match the available fault current at the panelboard, not the load current. In industrial facilities served by large transformers, available fault current can far exceed 30A, requiring high-IC breakers even on small ampere circuits.
Q: Is the PDG23G0030TFFJ UL listed?
A: Yes — UL 489, CSA C22.2, and IEC 60947-2 compliant.
