Built to handle heavy electrical loads, the LAP26400MT is a 400A, two-pole breaker housed in a three-pole frame. It features a factory-installed plug-on shroud and line-side lugs. This unit mount breaker integrates into Square D switchboards and control panels. For modernization, it can be replaced by the PowerPacT L-Frame series using a retrofit kit. Delivering 30 kAIC at 480VAC, this legacy MCCB offers adjustable magnetic trip functionality and a visual trip indicator.

Product FAQs
7 answers
What equipment is compatible with the LAP26400MT circuit breaker?
This L-Frame breaker is designed for integration into Square D switchboards, motor control centers, and industrial control panels that accommodate unit-mount, bolt-on configurations.
What are the wire size requirements for the LAP26400MT lugs?
The included lugs accept either a single 1 AWG to 600 kcmil wire or dual 1 AWG to 250 kcmil wires per phase. Both aluminum and copper conductors are supported.
Does the LAP26400MT allow for trip curve adjustments?
Yes, while the thermal overload protection is fixed, the magnetic instantaneous trip is adjustable. This allows electricians to fine-tune short-circuit response times for better coordination with downstream devices.
How does the LAP26400MT mount inside an enclosure?
It utilizes a unit-mount, bolt-on connection. Unlike I-Line plug-on breakers, this model must be bolted directly to the mounting pan or bus structure within the switchboard or control panel.
What frame type does the LAP26400MT use?
It is built on the legacy Square D LAL frame. It is a 2-pole breaker housed in a standard L-Frame footprint, making it a direct replacement for older LAL or LAP unit-mount breakers of the same amperage.
Can the LAP26400MT be installed in DC electrical systems?
Yes, in addition to its 600VAC rating, this breaker is rated for 250VDC applications, providing up to 10kAIC of short-circuit interrupting capacity for direct current circuits.
What trip functions are included in the LAP26400MT?
It features a thermal-magnetic trip unit with Long-Time and Instantaneous protection. The thermal element prevents overheating from sustained overloads, while the magnetic element trips immediately during high-fault short circuits.
