Engineered for commercial power distribution, this 400A unit-mount breaker features a factory-installed 120-240VAC shunt trip for remote tripping. It delivers reliable long-time and instantaneous (LI) protection. Designed to integrate into Square D switchboards and enclosures, this legacy L-frame device utilizes standard lug connections. It is replaced by the newer LJL36400U31X. Boasting an extra-high 65kAIC at 480VAC, the current-limiting design minimizes let-through energy.

Product FAQs
4 answers
What wire sizes are accepted by the lugs on the LCL36400-1021?
The standard lugs accept either one 1 AWG to 600 kcmil aluminum or copper wire, or two 1 AWG to 250 kcmil aluminum or copper wires per phase. This dual-wire capability is useful for parallel conductor runs.
How do the LI trip functions operate on this breaker?
The LI designation indicates Long-Time (L) and Instantaneous (I) protection. The Long-Time function provides fixed thermal overload protection. The Instantaneous function provides adjustable magnetic short-circuit protection, which can be set between 2000A and 4000A to coordinate with downstream devices.
What does the -1021 suffix indicate on this catalog number?
The -1021 suffix means this breaker comes with a factory-installed 120-240V AC shunt trip. This allows the breaker to be tripped remotely by applying voltage to the shunt trip coil, which is commonly used for emergency stop or safety interlock circuits.
What type of equipment is this L-frame breaker designed to be installed in?
The LCL36400-1021 is designed for use in Square D switchboards, motor control centers, and individual enclosures. It features a feed-thru unit mount design, meaning it bolts directly to the mounting surface and uses lugs for both line and load connections rather than plugging into a busbar.
