Built to handle demanding electrical loads, this 45A, 3-pole MCCB delivers robust thermal-magnetic protection for industrial facilities. The Square D FAL340451380 operates at up to 480VAC with an 18kAIC interrupting capacity. Designed for unit-mount configurations, it fits into Square D control panels and switchboards. For modernization projects, this legacy F-Frame breaker is replaced by the HDL36045, which requires equivalent accessory add-ons.
What does the 1380 suffix mean on the FAL340451380?
The 1380 suffix indicates the breaker includes a factory-installed 120/240VAC shunt trip and a 1A/1B auxiliary switch. This configuration allows for remote tripping and circuit status monitoring in control panels.
How is the FAL340451380 installed in an electrical system?
This is a unit-mount, feed-thru circuit breaker. It bolts directly to the backpan of Square D enclosures, switchboards, or control panels rather than plugging onto a panelboard busbar.
What wire sizes are compatible with the lugs on this breaker?
The factory-installed line and load lugs accept 14 to 1/0 AWG copper (Cu) wire or 12 to 1/0 AWG aluminum (Al) wire.
What is the modern replacement for the legacy FAL340451380?
The FAL series is a legacy F-Frame breaker. For new installations or modernization projects, it is typically replaced by the PowerPact H-Frame series, such as the HDL36045. Equivalent shunt trip and auxiliary switch accessories must be added to the PowerPact breaker to match the original 1380 configuration.
Can the FAL340451380 be used in direct current (DC) applications?
Yes, this thermal-magnetic breaker is rated for DC systems up to 250VDC, where it provides a 10kA interrupting capacity.
Are the trip settings adjustable on this 45A breaker?
No, the FAL340451380 features a thermal-magnetic trip unit with fixed long-time and fixed instantaneous (LI) trip functions.
What enclosures are compatible with this F-Frame breaker?
It is designed for use in standard Square D enclosures, switchboards, and industrial control panels that accept unit-mount legacy F-Frame circuit breakers.
