Is this circuit breaker rated for 80 percent or 100 percent continuous current?
The standard JJL36250 is an 80 percent rated circuit breaker. Applications requiring a 100 percent continuous current rating will require a different catalog configuration.
What safety and compliance standards does the JJL36250 meet?
This circuit breaker is UL 489 Listed for overcurrent protection. It also carries CSA, NOM, IEC, and CE markings for compliance across multiple regions.
