Product FAQs
6 answersWhich panelboards accept the NM632225 breaker?
This breaker is specifically designed for installation in legacy Federal Pacific NM Panelboards and Switchboards. It will not fit in standard residential load centers or other FPE commercial frames.
What wire gauge is required for the NM632225 lugs?
The standard lugs on this breaker accept conductor sizes ranging from 1/0 AWG to 600 kcmil. Always verify that your conductor material and insulation rating align with the panel's requirements before installation.
How does the NM632225 connect to the panel busbar?
It features a bolt-on connection type. The breaker is hard-mounted directly to the busbar using threaded fasteners, providing a secure, vibration-resistant connection suitable for commercial and industrial environments.
Are the trip settings on the NM632225 adjustable?
No, this breaker utilizes a fixed thermal and fixed magnetic trip unit. The long-time and instantaneous overcurrent protection thresholds are factory-set and cannot be modified by the user.
Is the Federal Pacific NM632225 still in active production?
Federal Pacific Electric (FPE) is no longer in business, meaning original production of the NM632225 has ceased. Replacements for these obsolete breakers are sourced from legacy inventory to maintain existing NM frame switchboards without requiring a full system retrofit.
Does the FPE Stab-Lok safety issue apply to the NM632225?
No. The well-documented safety hazards associated with Federal Pacific apply to their residential Stab-Lok load centers and plug-in breakers. The NM632225 is a heavy-duty, commercial-grade molded case circuit breaker and is not part of the Stab-Lok line.
