Part of the legacy F-frame family, this 30A molded case circuit breaker delivers robust thermal-magnetic protection for industrial environments. The integrated 120-240VAC shunt trip allows remote tripping capabilities. Built for Square D I-Line panelboards and switchboards, the plug-on connection ensures rapid installation. When modernizing panels, the PowerPact BGA36030 serves as the recommended upgrade path. Delivering 65kA interrupting capacity at 240VAC, it includes Visi-Trip indication.

Product FAQs
7 answers
What panelboards are compatible with the FH36030-1021?
This breaker is specifically designed for installation in Square D I-Line panelboards and switchboards. It utilizes an I-Line style plug-in connection to mount directly to the busbar.
What does the -1021 suffix indicate on the FH36030-1021?
The -1021 suffix designates that this breaker comes with a factory-installed 120-240VAC shunt trip. This accessory allows the breaker to be tripped remotely using a control signal.
What wire sizes are accepted by the terminals on this breaker?
The standard lugs on this 30A breaker accept 14 to 4 AWG copper conductors or 12 to 4 AWG aluminum conductors.
Is the Square D FH frame still in active production?
The FH frame is part of the legacy F-frame family of molded case circuit breakers. When modernizing equipment, Schneider Electric recommends transitioning to the PowerPact B-frame series as the modern upgrade path.
How can I tell if the FH36030-1021 has tripped?
This breaker features a Visi-Trip indicator. When a fault occurs and the breaker trips, the indicator provides clear visual confirmation, making it easy to identify the tripped breaker in a crowded panelboard.
Can the FH36030-1021 be used in direct current (DC) systems?
Yes, this thermal-magnetic breaker is rated for use in DC applications up to 250VDC, where it provides an interrupting capacity of 10kA.
Are the trip settings adjustable on the FH36030-1021?
No, this breaker features fixed thermal and fixed magnetic trip settings. It provides standard long-time and instantaneous protection functions without the ability to adjust the trip thresholds in the field.
