The Square D HGA36100SA is a 3 Pole thermal magnetic molded case circuit breaker with a current rating of 100 Amps and a voltage rating of 600VAC. It has an interrupting rating of 65kAIC at 240VAC, 35kAIC at 480VAC. The HGA36100SA has an I-Line style plug-in connection type and includes long time and instantaneous trip functions.
It is an I-Line style plug-in breaker designed exclusively for use in Square D I-Line panelboards and switchboards.
What does the SA suffix mean on the HGA36100SA?
The SA suffix indicates that this breaker includes a factory-installed shunt trip with a control voltage of 110-130V AC. This allows the breaker to be tripped remotely.
What is the interrupting rating of the HGA36100SA at 600VAC?
This breaker has an interrupting rating of 18kAIC at 600VAC. The G in the catalog number designates the G-interrupting tier for Square D PowerPacT H-frame breakers.
How are wire connections made on the load side of the HGA36100SA?
The load side of the breaker uses mechanical lugs that accept AWG 14 to AWG 3/0 aluminum or copper wire. The line side plugs directly into the I-Line bus.
Does the HGA36100SA include a push-to-trip button?
Yes, Square D PowerPacT H-frame breakers feature an integral push-to-trip button on the faceplate to manually test the tripping mechanism.
Can the HGA36100SA replace older FA or FH series breakers?
Yes, PowerPacT H-frame I-Line breakers like the HGA36100SA are designed to replace legacy Square D FA36100 and FH36100 breakers in existing I-Line panelboards.
Is the HGA36100SA rated for continuous duty?
Yes, this breaker has a standard 80 percent continuous current rating.
How does the thermal-magnetic trip unit function on the HGA36100SA?
The thermal-magnetic trip unit provides long-time (thermal) protection against overloads and instantaneous (magnetic) protection against short circuits.
Can the HGA36100SA be used in a standard QO or Homeline load center?
No, this is an I-Line plug-in breaker and is only compatible with commercial and industrial Square D I-Line panelboards and switchboards. It will not fit in residential QO or Homeline load centers.
Does the HGA36100SA require a separate mounting bracket?
No, as an I-Line breaker, it features built-in plug-on jaws that snap directly onto the I-Line panel bus, requiring no additional mounting brackets or hardware for the line side.
