Power Defense Molded Case Circuit Breakers—Frame Size 2
Product Description
Frame Size 2 covers a range
of 15 A through 225 A with a
complete offering of trip units,
including PXR electronic trip
units and fixed-fixed thermalmagnetic trip units.
Application Description
Frame Size 2 can be used
to meet a wide range of
circuit protection and power
distribution needs, including
ground fault protection and
current limiting options. PXR
trip units in PD-2 provide all
levels of protection, including
energy metering with
multiple communication
schemes, breaker health
indication, and zone selective
interlocking with visual
indication.
Features and Benefits
Frame Size 2 breakers are
available in multiple ratings
from 15 A through 225 A.
They are configured with a
trip unit from the factory.
Accessories are modular in
design to allow for field
installation or factory
configuration. PXR trip units
are available with advanced
features to provide
customers unparalleled
situational awareness of
their electrical system.
Frame Size 2 covers a range of 15 A through 225 A using electronic trip units or thermal-magnetic
trip units. It is available in configurations of single-pole, 2-pole, 3-pole and 4-pole.

Frame Size 3 covers a range
of 45 A through 600 A with a
2
complete offering of trip
units, including PXR
2
electronic trip units and fixedadjustable thermal-magnetic
2
trip units. PD-3 is available in
two versions, with 400 A and
2
600 A constructions to
optimize performance in
multiple applications.

Application Description
Frame Size 3 can be used to
meet a wide range of circuit
protection and power
distribution needs, including
ground fault protection,
current limiting, 100% UL
ratings, and high
instantaneous settings for
selective coordination. PXR
trip units in PD-3 provide all
levels of protection, including
energy metering with
multiple communication
schemes, breaker health
indication, and arc flash
reduction options.
Frame Size 3 breakers are
modular and available as
complete breakers from the
factory, or as modular
components, including
frames, trip units,
accessories and terminals to
provide flexibility for
customers. PXR trip units are
available with advanced
features to provide
customers unparalleled
situational awareness of their
electrical system.
Standards and Certifications
Power Defense breakers are
designed and tested to meet
stringent requirements for:
Frame Size 3 covers a range of 45 A through 600 A using electronic trip units, and 100 A through
600 A using thermal-magnetic trip units. It is available in configurations of 2-pole, 3-pole and
4-pole, with the 2-pole being in the same physical size of a 3-pole variant. Frame 3 has two unique
constructions: one for 400 A and a second one for 600 A. The 600 A construction provides a unique
capability to be used at 400 A and below in critical coordination applications where a high level fixed
instantaneous is required. This is accomplished by using a letter H in the 7th digit of the catalog
number, as shown below.

Trip Units
PD-3 thermal-magnetic and electronic breakers may also be purchased as separate frames, trip units,
terminals and accessories for field configuration of a final breaker. The 400 A frame must use trip units
of ratings 0100–0400, while the 600 A frame must use trip units of ratings 0500, 0600 or designated
by H, such as H250. Additionally, for 2-pole breakers using electronic trip units, 3-pole trip units are
used. PDG designated trip units are for use with PDG and PDF breaker frames. The 100% rating for
PDF (100% UL Rated) is marked on the frame, not the trip unit.

Power Defense breakers
have designated positions for
alarm and auxiliary switches
in the right pole accessory
cavity. For Frame 3, the two
left-most positions are used
for alarm switches, and the
two right-most locations are
used for auxiliary switches.
Power Defense breakers
have secondary covers for
ease of field installation of
accessories, including alarm
and auxiliary switches.

Power Defense alarm and

available in contact blocks, in
Form A (NO), Form B (NC),
and Form C (NO-NC) types.
Form A and Form B contacts
take one position in the
breaker accessory cavity, and
Form C contacts take two
positions in the cavity.
Identical contact blocks are
used for the alarm and
auxiliary switch functions.
Electronic breakers with
communications options
(Modbus RTU or CAM Link)
lose one alarm switch
position, but are also able to
provide trip position via
communications and the PXR
programmable relays.
