Operating within the PowerPacT H-Frame family, this 20A unit mount breaker supplies dependable long-time and instantaneous overcurrent defense. The device fastens into standard industrial control panels and serves as a modern substitute for discontinued FA36020 or FH36020 components. With an impressive 65kAIC rating at 240V and 18kAIC at 600V, the HACR-rated unit utilizes current-limiting technology and a trip-free mechanism to ensure maximum safety across demanding electrical environments.
Can the HGL36020 replace older Square D F-Frame circuit breakers?
Yes, the PowerPacT H-Frame HGL36020 is the modern replacement for legacy 20A, 3-pole F-Frame breakers such as the FAL36020. Because H-Frame breakers have different physical dimensions than the older F-Frame models, panel or mounting modifications may be necessary during retrofits.
What wire sizes are compatible with the standard lugs on the HGL36020?
The factory-installed lugs accept either copper or aluminum conductors ranging from 14 AWG to 3/0 AWG. Ensure proper torque specifications are followed during installation.
What type of equipment is the HGL36020 compatible with?
This unit-mount, feed-thru breaker is designed for installation in industrial control panels, switchboards, and dedicated PowerPacT H-Frame enclosures. Because it is a unit-mount breaker, it will not plug into an I-Line panelboard.
Does the HGL36020 include a manual testing feature?
Yes, this PowerPacT H-Frame breaker features a built-in push-to-trip button. This allows qualified personnel to manually trip the breaker to verify the mechanical operation of the trip mechanism during routine maintenance.
Is the HGL36020 rated for 100 percent continuous operation?
No, this is a standard-rated breaker. It is rated for continuous operation at 80 percent of its 20A capacity in accordance with standard National Electrical Code (NEC) requirements.
