Product FAQs

6 answers
What panelboards are compatible with the FCS36TE045R?

This bolt-on circuit breaker is designed specifically for installation in GE Record Plus panelboards and compatible switchboards.

What frame size does the FCS36TE045R belong to?

This breaker is part of the GE Record Plus FC100 frame series, which supports configurations up to 100 amps.

Can the FCS36TE045R be used in direct current (DC) systems?

Yes, it is rated for DC applications up to 500VDC, providing an interrupting capacity of 10kA at that voltage.

Are the thermal and magnetic trip settings adjustable on this breaker?

No, the FCS36TE045R features a fixed thermal-magnetic trip unit. Both the Long-Time (thermal) and Instantaneous (magnetic) protection functions are factory set and cannot be adjusted in the field.

Why might this breaker arrive with ABB branding instead of General Electric?

ABB acquired GE Industrial Solutions in 2018. Depending on the production batch, Record Plus breakers may carry either GE or ABB branding, but the physical dimensions and technical specifications are identical.

What is the modern ABB equivalent for the FCS36TE045R?

For modern panel upgrades or replacements, this Record Plus breaker crosses over to the ABB Tmax XT1 platform, specifically using catalog number XT1NU3045AFF000XXX.
