Built for maximum fault clearing, the SGPA36AT0400 is a 400A, 3-pole molded case circuit breaker frame from GE. It is designed to install into Spectra Series panelboards and switchboards for commercial and industrial applications. This breaker utilizes a solid-state electronic trip unit with adjustable LSI functions and tracking short-time protection. With a high 100kAIC rating at 480VAC and true RMS sensing, it ensures precise coordination. Note that an interchangeable rating plug is required.
What rating plug is required for the SGPA36AT0400 frame?
This Spectra RMS frame requires an SRPG400A series rating plug to establish its continuous current rating. Compatible plugs range up to 400 amps, including catalog numbers like SRPG400A250 and SRPG400A400. The rating plug is sold separately.
Which lug kit should be used with this 3-pole SG-frame breaker?
The TCLK365 lug terminal kit is the standard option for 3-pole SG-frame breakers. It accepts copper or aluminum conductors and includes three lugs with a protective terminal cover. Lugs are sold separately from the breaker frame.
Is the SGPA36AT0400 suitable for reverse-feed applications?
Yes. The General Electric Spectra RMS SG-frame circuit breakers are rated for reverse-feed installations.
Are the rating plugs field-installable?
Yes. The solid-state electronic trip unit uses a front-mounted rating plug that can be field-installed or swapped to change the breaker ampere rating without replacing the entire frame.
What tool is used to safely extract the rating plug?
General Electric manufactures the TRTOOL rating plug removal tool, which is specifically designed to safely extract rating plugs from all Spectra RMS molded case circuit breaker frames.
Does this electronic trip unit include ground fault protection?
No. The SGPA36AT0400 features an LSI trip unit, providing Long-Time, Short-Time, and Instantaneous protection. It does not include ground fault (G) sensing.
Which electrical enclosures are compatible with this circuit breaker?
This unit-mount, bolt-on breaker frame is designed for use within General Electric Spectra Series panelboards, switchboards, and motor control centers.
Is the SGPA36AT0400 HACR rated?
Yes. This molded case circuit breaker is HACR rated, making it suitable for overcurrent protection with commercial heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration equipment.
