Product FAQs
6 answers
What does the "1212" suffix indicate on the KAL360701212 catalog number?
The "1212" suffix signifies that this breaker is factory-equipped with a 1A/1B auxiliary switch, which provides remote status signaling of the breaker's open or closed position.
What type of mounting does the KAL360701212 require?
This is a unit-mount, feed-thru circuit breaker. It is designed to be bolted directly to the backpan or mounting surface in Square D enclosures, switchboards, or motor control centers, rather than plugging into a busbar.
What wire sizes and materials are compatible with the KAL360701212 lugs?
The standard factory lugs accept both aluminum (Al) and copper (Cu) conductors ranging from 4 AWG up to 350 kcmil.
How does the trip unit function on this 70A K-Frame breaker?
It utilizes a thermal-magnetic trip unit with a fixed thermal element for long-time overload protection and an adjustable magnetic element for instantaneous short-circuit protection.
Is the KAL360701212 suitable for direct current (DC) applications?
Yes, while primarily used in AC distribution, this thermal-magnetic breaker is also rated for DC systems up to 250VDC, providing a 10kAIC interrupting capacity for those applications.
Where is the KAL360701212 typically installed?
As a legacy K-Frame MCCB, it is commonly installed in older Square D switchboards, motor control centers, and standalone industrial enclosures requiring a 70A, 3-pole feed-thru breaker.
