Built to handle demanding electrical loads, the Square D BDA34100Y provides 100 amps of thermal-magnetic protection. This 3-pole PowerPacT B-Frame breaker is optimized for modern commercial facilities. Designed for quick installation, it fits into Square D I-Line panelboards and switchboards. It also provides a seamless upgrade path for systems using legacy FA34100 breakers. This current-limiting MCCB delivers 18 kAIC at 480Y/277V and features a Visi-Trip indicator for easy troubleshooting.
Is the BDA34100Y a direct replacement for older Square D breakers?
Yes, the PowerPacT B-frame BDA34100Y serves as the modern replacement for the legacy Square D FA34100. It matches the original 1.5-inch per pole width, allowing it to seamlessly fit into existing I-Line panel spaces without requiring blank fillers.
What does the 'Y' suffix in the BDA34100Y part number indicate?
The 'Y' designates an ABC phase connection. When installed in an I-Line panelboard or switchboard, the breaker's jaws align with and connect to the A, B, and C phases of the busbar.
Does the BDA34100Y require a separate mounting kit?
No additional hardware is required. The integrated I-Line style plug-in connection allows the breaker to mount directly onto the bus assembly of Square D I-Line panelboards and switchboards.
Are the pre-installed lugs rated for aluminum wiring?
Yes, the factory-installed load side lugs are dual-rated for both aluminum and copper (Al/Cu) conductors. They accommodate wire sizes from 14 AWG up to 2/0 AWG.
Can the BDA34100Y be used in direct current (DC) circuits?
Yes, this thermal-magnetic breaker is rated for DC applications. It provides a 10kA interrupting capacity at up to 250VDC.
Can I field-install auxiliary contacts or shunt trips in this breaker?
Yes, Square D PowerPacT B-frame breakers feature a modular design that supports field-installable internal accessories, including auxiliary switches, alarm switches, and shunt trips.
Can the trip settings on the BDA34100Y be adjusted in the field?
No. This breaker features fixed thermal and fixed magnetic trip elements for its Long-Time and Instantaneous (LI) functions. The trip parameters are permanently calibrated at the factory and cannot be adjusted.

Installed & working
Ordered this from SuperBreakers when local vendors were quoting me 25%+.
So I got a refurbished version of this breaker.
It is installed and working.
Also, service was great.
Thank you SuperBreakers!
