Product FAQs
7 answersWhere is the HLP36070 typically installed?
This unit-mount PowerPacT H-frame breaker is commonly installed in Square D switchboards, motor control centers, and standalone industrial enclosures. It requires mounting hardware compatible with unit-mount configurations.
Can the HLP36070 circuit breaker be reverse fed?
Yes, standard PowerPacT H-frame thermal-magnetic breakers like the HLP36070 can be reverse fed, as they do not have restrictive line and load markings.
What does the L in the HLP36070 catalog number indicate?
In the PowerPacT catalog numbering system, the L designates the interrupting rating performance level. For this breaker, it indicates a high interrupting capacity of 100kA at 480VAC and 50kA at 600VAC.
Are the trip settings on the HLP36070 adjustable?
No, this breaker features a fixed thermal and fixed magnetic trip unit. It does not offer adjustable settings for the long-time or instantaneous trip functions.
Does the HLP36070 include a push-to-trip feature?
Yes, all PowerPacT circuit breakers, including the HLP36070, feature an integral push-to-trip button on the cover. This allows users to manually trip the breaker for testing and maintenance purposes.
How does the HLP36070 protect against short circuits?
It utilizes a fixed thermal-magnetic trip unit with long-time and instantaneous (LI) protection. Additionally, PowerPacT H-frame breakers are equipped with dual-break rotating contacts that reduce peak current during a short circuit fault.
Is the HLP36070 a direct replacement for older Square D 70A breakers?
The HLP36070 is part of the current PowerPacT H-frame series. While it can replace older legacy breakers of similar ratings, you must verify that your specific enclosure, panel, or switchboard is designed to accept PowerPacT H-frame dimensions and mounting configurations.
