Built for advanced control, the Square D FA36070-1021 integrates a 120-240VAC shunt trip for remote disconnection. This 3-pole, 70A MCCB utilizes thermal-magnetic technology to deliver reliable long-time and instantaneous (LI) protection. The F-Frame breaker installs into Square D I-Line panelboards using a plug-on connection. For modernizing older infrastructure, this configuration is replaced by the HDA36070SA.

Product FAQs
5 answers
What does the -1021 suffix indicate on the FA36070-1021?
The -1021 suffix designates a factory-installed 120/240VAC shunt trip. This internal accessory allows the breaker to be opened remotely by an external control signal, which is commonly used for emergency stops or automated control systems.
What is the current PowerPact replacement for the legacy FA36070-1021?
The modern equivalent for this legacy F-Frame MCCB is the Square D PowerPact H-Frame HDA36070SA for 120VAC control circuits, or HDA36070SD for 240VAC control circuits. Both maintain the 70A rating, matching interrupting capacity, and I-Line plug-on mounting.
Are the thermal and magnetic trip settings adjustable on this breaker?
No, the FA36070-1021 utilizes a standard thermal-magnetic trip unit with fixed long-time and fixed instantaneous functions. If your application requires adjustable trip curves, you will need to upgrade to a breaker with an electronic trip unit.
Can I add a shunt trip to a standard FA36070 in the field?
No, internal accessories like shunt trips and auxiliary switches for legacy Square D F-Frame breakers are factory-installed. You must specify the correct catalog suffix, such as -1021, at the time of purchase if your application requires remote tripping.
How does the FA36070-1021 mount into the panelboard?
This breaker uses an I-Line style plug-on connection. The line side features plug-on jaws that engage directly with the busbar stack in Square D I-Line panelboards and switchboards, while the load side uses standard mechanical lugs.

Great company
Ordered on a Saturday evening, paid for two day shipping and it arrived on time and in perfect condition. Would 100 percent be using this company going forward, beat out pricing and shipping times for all my local supply houses. Plus the staff were great to deal with.

Professional Service
So far, so good! The circuit breaker was installed along with a new compressor for our church AC, and everything is now working well.
The company has been professional, dependable, and reputable throughout the process. I had a question after the installation, and it was answered immediately. I also appreciated that they followed up and asked for feedback to make sure the new part was working properly and that we were satisfied with the service.
It’s refreshing to deal with a company that not only has quality products but also cares about its customers after the job is completed. I would definitely recommend them!
