Product FAQs
6 answers
Which panelboards are compatible with the XT4HU3250AYL000XXX breaker?
This unit mounts directly into ABB and GE ReliaGear neXT panelboards, switchboards, and SACE Tmax XT panelboards. It requires the appropriate mounting hardware or breaker kit specific to the panelboard type.
What wire sizes are accepted by the lugs on this 250A XT4 breaker?
The factory installed lugs accept copper or aluminum conductors ranging from 3/0 AWG to 350 kcmil. Ensure you apply the correct torque specifications listed on the breaker faceplate during installation to prevent thermal issues.
Can this 3-pole XT4 breaker be used in DC circuits?
Yes, it is rated for DC applications up to 600VDC with an interrupting capacity of 65kA, and 250VDC at 50kA. When wiring for DC systems, follow ABB guidelines for series wiring of poles to achieve the required voltage rating.
Is the thermal magnetic trip unit on this breaker adjustable?
No, this specific model features a fixed thermal and fixed magnetic (LI) trip unit. Both the long-time overload protection and instantaneous short-circuit protection are factory set and cannot be modified in the field.
Does this ABB Tmax XT breaker replace older GE Spectra series breakers?
The SACE Tmax XT series, including the XT4 frame, is the direct replacement for legacy GE Spectra RMS breakers in many applications. However, retrofitting into older GE enclosures may require specific adapter kits or hardware.
Does this breaker snap into place or require bolt-on mounting?
This is a unit mount breaker, meaning it bolts directly to the chassis or mounting plate rather than snapping onto a busbar. It is designed for secure, fixed installations in switchboards and compatible panelboards.
