Product FAQs
7 answersWhat panels and enclosures are compatible with the SGHC3606L5XX?
This SG-frame breaker is specifically designed to mount in GE Spectra Series panelboards, switchboards, and motor control centers. It cannot be installed in standard GE A-Series or ReliaGear lighting panels.
What does the LSIA designation mean on this Spectra RMS breaker?
The electronic trip unit features adjustable Long-Time (L), Short-Time (S), and Instantaneous (I) overcurrent protection. The A indicates an integrated Alarm function, which alerts facility operators to specific fault conditions without immediately tripping the breaker.
Why is this breaker branded as both ABB and General Electric?
ABB acquired GE Industrial Solutions in 2018. Depending on the manufacturing date, the SGHC3606L5XX may carry either the GE or ABB logo. Both versions are functionally and physically identical.
Is the GE Spectra RMS series still in active production?
The Spectra RMS series is a legacy product line that has been largely replaced by the ABB Tmax XT series. Exact replacements like the SGHC3606L5XX are typically used to maintain or expand existing Spectra installations without requiring a full panel retrofit.
What are the advantages of the electronic trip unit on the SGHC3606L5XX?
The solid-state electronic trip unit provides true RMS sensing and precise, adjustable trip curves. This ensures accurate response to high currents and prevents nuisance tripping caused by harmonic loads, improving overall system safety and selective coordination.
How is the SGHC3606L5XX secured to the bus?
This breaker utilizes a bolt-on connection. Bolt-on mounting is standard for Spectra SG-frame breakers, providing a highly secure, vibration-resistant connection required in heavy-duty industrial switchboards.
How are the line and load wires terminated on this breaker?
The SGHC3606L5XX uses lug terminals. Because wire sizes and materials vary, SG-frame breakers require compatible Spectra lug kits to properly terminate copper or aluminum conductors.
