Product FAQs
6 answers
Are lugs included with the FCN36TE080R circuit breaker?
No. In the GE Record Plus series, catalog numbers ending with an R suffix indicate that the breaker does not include line or load lugs. Lugs must be sourced and installed separately.
Is the trip unit on the FCN36TE080R adjustable?
No, this breaker features a fixed thermal and fixed magnetic trip unit. The long-time and instantaneous trip functions are factory set and cannot be adjusted in the field.
What types of equipment are compatible with the FCN36TE080R?
This bolt-on breaker is designed for use in GE switchboards, motor control centers, and standalone enclosures. It can also be installed in GE Spectra panelboards when using the appropriate retrofit mounting kit.
Can the FCN36TE080R be used in DC electrical systems?
Yes, this breaker is rated for DC applications. It provides an interrupting rating of 40kA at both 250VDC and 500VDC.
Why is this breaker listed under both ABB and General Electric?
ABB acquired GE Industrial Solutions. As a result, many legacy GE circuit breakers, including the Record Plus FCN series, are now manufactured and branded under ABB while retaining the original GE catalog numbers.
How does the FCN36TE080R mount into a panel?
It is a unit-mount, bolt-on circuit breaker. It secures directly to the bus or mounting bracket using bolts rather than a plug-on or snap-in connection.
