Eaton - PDG23M0015TFFJ – 15A 3-Pole 600V 65kA Power Defense Feed-Thru Circuit Breaker
Product images are representative only. Actual product may vary.
The Eaton PDG23M0015TFFJ is a 3-pole, 15-amp thermal magnetic molded case circuit breaker rated for 600VAC with an interrupting capacity of 65kA, from Eaton's Power Defense series (PDG Frame 3). This is the smallest ampere rating in the Power Defense Frame 3 family, providing 65kA fault current protection in a Feed-Thru (TFFJ) mounting for industrial panelboards requiring the highest level of branch circuit safety.

- Replacement for legacy Eaton HFD3015 and similar 15A 600V 3-pole breakers
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is the PDG23M0015TFFJ overkill for a 15A circuit?
A: No — the interrupting capacity (65kA) is independent of the load current (15A). Industrial 600V systems can have fault currents of 30–65kA, requiring all breakers in the panel to have matching IC ratings for code compliance and safety.
Q: Is the PDG23M0015TFFJ UL listed?
A: Yes — UL 489, CSA C22.2, and IEC 60947-2 compliant.
