BAB3070H – EATON 3P70A 240V BOLT ON BREAKER

The BAB3070H uses Eaton's bolt-on BAB frame, which is designed for Eaton/Cutler-Hammer commercial and industrial panelboards and switchboards that accept BAB bolt-on breakers. It is not a plug-in BR or CH residential breaker. If you're unsure whether it fits your specific panelboard, share your panel model with us and we'll confirm.

In many cases, yes — Eaton has maintained backward compatibility across its BAB bolt-on series, so the BAB3070H is often a direct replacement for older Cutler-Hammer BAB-frame breakers of the same 3-pole, 70A, 240V rating. However, always verify the bus style and interrupting rating of your existing panelboard before swapping. Contact us with your existing breaker part number and we can help confirm cross-compatibility.

The BAB3070H carries a 10kA (10,000 AIC) interrupting rating at 240V. This is suitable for most light commercial and small industrial installations where available fault current does not exceed 10kA. If your service or distribution panel has higher available fault current, you may require a higher-AIC-rated breaker — our team can help you assess the right option for your application.
