Engineered for industrial applications, the Square D FAL34100-1021 is a 3-pole, 100A molded case circuit breaker. It provides thermal-magnetic protection for systems up to 480VAC. This unit mount breaker installs into compatible Square D enclosures and motor control centers. As a legacy F-Frame component, it is replaced by the BDL36100SA for modern upgrades. Rated for 25kAIC at 240VAC, this model includes a factory-installed 120-240VAC shunt trip for remote tripping capabilities.
What does the "-1021" suffix indicate on the FAL34100-1021 catalog number?
The "-1021" suffix designates a factory-installed 120-240VAC shunt trip, which allows the circuit breaker to be tripped remotely for emergency stops or control logic.
What is the modern replacement for the legacy FAL34100-1021 breaker?
The FAL34100-1021 is part of the legacy Square D F-Frame series. For modern upgrades or new builds, it crosses over to the PowerPact B-Frame series, specifically the BDL36100SA when equipped with a shunt trip.
What equipment is the FAL34100-1021 designed to be installed in?
This unit-mount MCCB is compatible with Square D enclosures, switchboards, and motor control centers that accept legacy F-Frame breakers.
What are the acceptable wire sizes for the line and load lugs on this breaker?
The included lugs accept 14 AWG to 1/0 AWG copper conductors, or 12 AWG to 1/0 AWG aluminum conductors.
Can the FAL34100-1021 be applied in DC electrical systems?
Yes, this thermal-magnetic breaker is rated for DC applications up to 250VDC, providing an interrupting rating of 10kAIC at that voltage.
How is the FAL34100-1021 mounted?
This is a unit-mount circuit breaker. It fastens directly to a backpan or mounting bracket and connects to the circuit via wire lugs, rather than plugging or bolting onto a panelboard busbar.
Can the trip curve be adjusted on the FAL34100-1021?
No, this breaker uses a fixed thermal-magnetic trip unit. Both the long-time (overload) and instantaneous (short circuit) trip functions are factory set and non-adjustable.
