Designed to support existing infrastructure, this 3-pole, 200-amp molded case circuit breaker delivers essential long-time and instantaneous trip functions. The bolt-on configuration is engineered for Westinghouse CDP or FDP panelboards and motor control centers. It provides a seamless replacement option for aging systems, and is commonly cross-referenced with the newer JD3200 model. With a 25kA interrupting capacity at 240V and an adjustable magnetic trip, it ensures precise fault handling.
Which panelboards are compatible with the J3200 circuit breaker?
The J3200 is a bolt-on breaker designed to fit classic Westinghouse CDP and FDP panelboards, as well as modern Eaton Pow-R-Line 3a and 4 panelboards. It is also compatible with standard motor control centers that accept Series C J-frame breakers.
Can the J3200 be used to replace older Westinghouse J-frame breakers?
Yes, the J3200 is a direct drop-in replacement for older Westinghouse J-frame breakers. When upgrading or replacing components in existing switchboards or motor control centers, it can also be substituted with the newer JD3200 or JDB3200 models.
What wire sizes do the standard load side lugs on the J3200 accept?
The included load side lug terminals are designed to accept wire gauges ranging from 4 AWG up to 350 kcmil. Ensure you verify the conductor material and apply the correct torque specifications during installation.
Is the trip unit on the J3200 fully adjustable?
No, the J3200 features a thermal-magnetic trip unit with a fixed thermal element for long-time overcurrent protection. Only the magnetic element is adjustable, allowing you to fine-tune the instantaneous short-circuit response.
Can the J3200 be used in DC applications?
Yes, in addition to its AC ratings, the J3200 is rated for 250VDC applications with an interrupting capacity of 10kA. This makes it suitable for specific industrial DC control panels and battery systems.
Is the J3200 suitable for reverse feed applications?
Yes, this breaker features a trip-free mechanism and is rated for reverse feed. This allows it to be back-fed safely in compatible panelboards or generator setups without compromising the trip function.
Is the J3200 suitable for HVAC equipment?
Yes, the J3200 is HACR rated, meaning it is certified for use with heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration equipment that requires a dedicated circuit breaker.
