Built for industrial power distribution, the Square D LAL363008041 is a 3-pole, 300A molded case circuit breaker. The 8041 catalog suffix indicates the inclusion of factory-installed control wire tap lugs for specialized circuit needs. Designed for unit mount configurations, it fits seamlessly into Square D switchboards and motor control centers. For modern upgrades, this legacy L-Frame unit is replaced by the LJL36300 series.
What does the 8041 suffix mean in the LAL363008041 catalog number?
The 8041 suffix indicates that the circuit breaker comes with factory-installed control wire tapped lugs.
Which Square D enclosures are compatible with the LAL363008041 circuit breaker?

What replacement lug kit is used for the LAL363008041?
The standard mechanical lug kit for this breaker is the AL400LA. It accepts either one 1 AWG to 600 kcmil conductor or two 1 AWG to 250 kcmil aluminum or copper conductors per phase.
How does the trip unit function on the LAL363008041?
It features 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.
Can I use the LAL363008041 to replace an older LA or LH frame breaker?
Yes, the LAL series shares the same physical footprint and mounting dimensions as legacy LA and LH frame breakers. However, if replacing an LH frame, verify that the LAL breaker's 30kA at 480V interrupting rating meets your system requirements, as LH breakers typically have higher AIC ratings.
How is the LAL363008041 mounted in a panel?
This is a unit mount, or feed-thru, circuit breaker. It is secured to the backpan using mounting screws and connects to the circuit using line and load side lugs. It is not compatible with I-Line panelboards.
