Eaton EHD2P70 Circuit Breaker

The Eaton EHD2P70 Circuit Breaker is a two-pole, 70-amp protective device from Eaton Cutler-Hammer, identified by the Type EHD designation. It is designed to interrupt current during overloads or faults to protect wiring and connected equipment. The model number EHD2P70 communicates two poles and a 70-amp rating within Eaton’s Type EHD family, signaling a higher-current, two-pole solution in the company’s circuit protection lineup. As part of Eaton Cutler-Hammer’s family of protective devices, this breaker adopts the Type EHD form factor and electrical characteristics associated with that series. The device’s 70-amp rating specifies the maximum continuous current it is designed to carry under normal conditions before tripping, providing overcurrent protection for circuits that require that level of capacity. The two-pole design enables simultaneous interruption of both conductors in a 240-volt circuit, delivering reliable protection for multi-wire systems that rely on two hot lines.
