Part of the legacy F-Frame series, the FAL34070 is a 3-pole, 70A molded case circuit breaker built for commercial and industrial power distribution. It provides reliable thermal-magnetic protection with fixed long-time and instantaneous (LI) trip functions. This unit-mount breaker installs into Square D enclosures, switchboards, and motor control centers. For system upgrades, note that this legacy model is replaced by the HGL36070. It features an 18 kAIC rating at 480VAC and is HACR rated.
What enclosures or panels are compatible with the FAL34070?
This legacy F-frame breaker is a unit-mount device designed for older Square D switchboards, motor control centers, and individual enclosures that accommodate feed-thru wiring.
What are the specific magnetic hold and trip values for the FAL34070?
The instantaneous magnetic protection is fixed, featuring an 800A hold current and a 1450A trip current.
Which standard lugs are used on the FAL34070 and what wire do they accept?
The factory AL100FA lug kit is standard for this amperage range. It accommodates one 14 to 1/0 AWG copper wire or one 12 to 1/0 AWG aluminum wire per terminal.
