Product FAQs
6 answersWhat load centers are compatible with the Federal Pacific NC015 circuit breaker?
The NC015 is designed exclusively for use in Federal Pacific Electric (FPE) Stab-Lok load centers. It features the proprietary Stab-Lok plug-on connection and will not fit in standard panels from other manufacturers.
How much space does the NC015 breaker require in a Stab-Lok panel?
The NC015 is a thin style breaker that requires only one half-inch space in a compatible FPE Stab-Lok load center. This allows for higher circuit density compared to the standard one-inch thick NA series breakers.
Can the NC015 replace a thick NA series breaker?
Yes, the half-inch thin NC015 can replace a one-inch thick NA15 breaker in a Stab-Lok panel. However, doing so will leave a half-inch gap in the panel deadfront cover unless a filler plate or a second thin breaker is installed next to it.
Is there a modern replacement available for the Federal Pacific NC015?
Yes, Connecticut Electric manufactures a modern replacement for the NC015 under the catalog number UBIF015N.
Are there safety concerns associated with Federal Pacific Stab-Lok breakers?
Yes. Many industry professionals and home inspectors recommend replacing FPE Stab-Lok panels entirely due to documented historical failure rates and safety concerns regarding the breakers failing to trip during overcurrent events. Consult a licensed electrician to evaluate your specific panel.
What does the LI trip function code mean on the NC015?
The LI designation indicates that the breaker provides Long-Time and Instantaneous trip functions. The long-time function protects against sustained overloads, while the instantaneous function trips immediately during a short circuit.

Was happy with all the service would’ve wished the person would inform me if I would’ve spent $15 more I could’ve got free shipping. That way I could’ve ordered another 20 amp circuit breaker. And got it for free.

I wasn't sure about ordering my particular breakers online because they don't make replica replacements but found the warranty outstanding. The follow-up call as a new customer and the speed with which my order was processed and completed was superior. The price was 1/3 what the ONE local supplier charged.
