Product FAQs
7 answersWhat does the -1021 suffix on the FAL36080-1021 indicate?
The -1021 suffix indicates that this breaker includes a factory-installed 120-240VAC shunt trip. This allows the breaker to be tripped remotely for enhanced safety and control.
How does the FAL36080-1021 mount into a panel?
This is a unit-mount circuit breaker with a feed-thru connection type. It installs using line and load side lugs rather than plugging or bolting directly onto a panelboard bus.
What wire sizes are accepted by the standard lugs on the FAL36080-1021?
The standard lugs accept 14 AWG to 1/0 AWG copper wire, or 12 AWG to 1/0 AWG aluminum wire.
What is the modern replacement for the legacy FAL36080-1021?
The Square D FAL series is a legacy F-Frame breaker. For modern applications, it is typically replaced by the PowerPact B-Frame or H-Frame series. When upgrading, you will need to add a separate shunt trip accessory to match the remote trip functionality of the -1021 suffix.
Does the FAL36080-1021 feature a Visi-Trip indicator?
Yes, this breaker includes a Visi-Trip indicator. When the breaker trips, the handle snaps to a center position and a highly visible red indicator appears, making it easy to identify the tripped breaker in a crowded panel.
Are the trip settings adjustable on the FAL36080-1021?
No, this breaker features a thermal-magnetic trip unit with fixed thermal and fixed magnetic settings for both long-time and instantaneous protection.
What equipment is the FAL36080-1021 designed to be installed in?
As a unit-mount breaker, it is designed for installation in Square D switchboards, motor control centers, and individual enclosures that accept legacy F-Frame breakers.
