What does the SA suffix indicate on the HDA36100SA catalog number?
The SA suffix indicates that this circuit breaker includes a factory-installed shunt trip accessory. This allows the breaker to be tripped remotely using a 110-130 VAC control voltage.
Can I add or remove the shunt trip on the HDA36100SA in the field?
No, the SA suffix denotes a factory-installed shunt trip. For PowerPacT H-frame breakers, factory-installed accessories are sealed within the breaker and are not designed to be field-installable or removable.
Can the HDA36100SA replace older Square D legacy breakers?
Yes, PowerPacT H-frame I-Line breakers are designed as modern drop-in replacements for legacy F-frame I-Line breakers, such as the FA36100, provided the voltage, amperage, and interrupting ratings meet your system requirements.
How does the HDA36100SA connect to the panelboard and the load?
The line side utilizes an I-Line plug-in jaw connection that snaps directly onto the panelboard bus. The load side is equipped with mechanical lugs that accept 14 AWG to 3/0 AWG aluminum or copper wire.
How can I manually test the tripping mechanism on the HDA36100SA?
PowerPacT H-frame circuit breakers feature an integral push-to-trip button on the front cover. Pressing this button manually trips the breaker to verify the mechanical operation of the trip mechanism and ensure safety before maintenance.
Is the HDA36100SA rated for 80% or 100% continuous current?
This standard PowerPacT H-frame circuit breaker is rated for 80% continuous current.
