Product FAQs
10 answersWhat do the BC, SA, and LV suffixes indicate on the HJL36060BCSALV catalog number?
These suffixes denote factory-installed accessories. "BC" indicates an alarm switch, "SA" signifies a 120VAC shunt trip for remote operation, and "LV" means the breaker includes a control wire tap on the load (OFF) end.
Can the HJL36060BCSALV be used to replace older Square D F-frame breakers?
Yes, the PowerPacT H-frame series is designed as a modern, drop-in replacement for legacy F-frame circuit breakers like the FCL36060. However, you must verify that the physical dimensions and accessory requirements match your specific enclosure.
How is the factory-installed 120VAC shunt trip (SA suffix) utilized?
The shunt trip allows the breaker to be tripped remotely by applying a 120VAC control signal. This is commonly used for emergency stops, fire alarm integration, or automated safety shutdowns.
What is the function of the alarm switch (BC suffix) on this breaker?
The factory-installed alarm switch provides remote signaling to indicate when the breaker has tripped due to an overload, short circuit, or shunt trip activation. It does not signal if the breaker is manually turned off.
Is the HJL36060BCSALV a current-limiting circuit breaker?
Yes, Square D PowerPacT H-frame breakers with thermal-magnetic trip units are current-limiting. They reduce the peak let-through current during a short circuit fault to enhance equipment protection.
How does a unit-mount breaker like the HJL36060BCSALV install into a panel?
Unit-mount (or feed-thru) breakers are fastened directly to the backpan or mounting surface of an enclosure or control panel using screws, rather than plugging onto a busbar like I-Line variants.
Can the HJL36060BCSALV be reverse fed?
Yes, standard thermal-magnetic PowerPacT H-frame circuit breakers without Line and Load markings are suitable for reverse feeding, allowing power to be supplied to either the top or bottom terminals.
Is the HJL36060BCSALV rated for use in DC applications?
Yes, this thermal-magnetic H-frame breaker is rated for 250VDC with an interrupting capacity of 20kA. It is suitable for protecting control circuits and other automation equipment operating on direct current.
Does this breaker feature a visual trip indicator?
Yes, it includes the Square D Visi-Trip indicator, which provides a clear visual cue when the breaker has tripped, helping operators quickly identify faults in a crowded control panel.
Can this 60A breaker be used for HVAC equipment?
Yes, the HJL36060BCSALV is HACR rated, meaning it is certified for use with heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration equipment that requires specialized overcurrent protection.
