Catalog Number Selection: A detailed guide is provided for selecting catalog numbers based on frame type, number of poles, trip unit ampere rating, and suffix options.
Product Selection: Lists various types of DC circuit breakers with their maximum continuous ampere ratings and catalog numbers for both complete breakers and frames only.

2. PVGard Solar Circuit Breakers:

Product Overview: Designed for solar photovoltaic applications, these breakers support 600 Vdc per-pole and 1000 Vdc poles-in-series configurations.
Features and Standards: Includes features like high interrupting capacity and compliance with relevant standards and certifications.

3. DC Switch Disconnectors and Switches:

Product Description: Details on DC switch disconnectors and switches, including their applications and features.

4. Dry-Type Distribution Transformers:

Product Description: Information on encapsulated and ventilated transformers, suitable for various distribution applications.

Technical Data and Specifications: The document includes technical data, specifications, wiring diagrams, and dimensions for each product category, ensuring comprehensive understanding and application.

Product Overview: The document provides an overview of Eaton's PVGard solar circuit breakers, which are designed for photovoltaic (PV) systems. There are two main product lineups: 600 Vdc per-pole breakers and switches, and 1000 Vdc poles-in-series breakers and switches. Both options are UL 489B listed for solar photovoltaic circuit protection and are calibrated at 50°C. The breakers are available in both 100% and 80% rated versions and can handle bi-directional current flow.

Product Description: PV systems convert solar energy into electrical power for the grid. PVGard circuit breakers protect the wiring from PV modules to the combiner or inverter, acting as a disconnect. Eaton's PVGard breakers combine disconnect and circuit protection in a compact, resettable device, replacing fuses and disconnects in combiner box and inverter applications. This saves space, streamlines design, and reduces spare parts requirements.

PVGard 600 Vdc Per-Pole Lineup: This lineup offers significant space, time, and cost savings by eliminating the need for jumpers for poles-in-series connections. It is designed for residential and light commercial applications.

PVGard 1000 Vdc Poles-in-Series Lineup: Suitable for commercial and utility-scale PV systems, this lineup provides reliable disconnect means and overcurrent protection without requiring jumpers, offering design flexibility.

Features: PVGard breakers are designed to meet the higher voltage and lower fault current levels of solar systems. They are tested for extreme ambient conditions and can handle bi-directional current flow. They are applicable in grounded, ungrounded, or bi-polar systems and meet UL 489B standards. The breakers are available in both standard and 100% rated versions, with a wide range of current ratings.

Standards and Certifications: The breakers are designed to meet UL 489B standards for solar photovoltaic circuit protection and are listed under UL File E350638.

Product Selection: The document provides detailed catalog numbers for various breaker frames and trip units, specifying current ratings and configurations for both 600 Vdc and 1000 Vdc options.

Accessories: A range of accessories is available, including auxiliary switches, shunt trips, electrical operators, and lock-off devices. Optional modifications such as freeze testing are also offered.

Conclusion: Eaton's PVGard solar circuit breakers offer a comprehensive solution for PV system protection, combining space-saving design with robust performance and flexibility for various applications.

Overview: The document provides information on Eaton's range of dry-type distribution transformers, specifically focusing on ventilated transformers and open core-coil assemblies. These transformers are available in NEMA 3R stainless steel or NEMA 4X enclosures, with the core and coil assembly embedded in a sand and resin compound to protect against moisture and contaminants.

Product Specifications: Eaton offers both ventilated and totally enclosed non-ventilated transformers. These products come in various K-factor ratings and efficiency levels, catering to different commercial distribution needs. The document references Volume 2—Commercial Distribution, CA08100003E, Tab 2 for more detailed information on standard product offerings.

Custom Design Capabilities: In addition to standard products, Eaton provides custom design services to meet specific requirements of the solar industry. This includes special dimensions, layouts, and designs to achieve CEC weighted-efficiency levels or other necessary efficiency standards. Customers are encouraged to contact their local Eaton representative for more information on custom design options.
