Product FAQs

7 answers
Which panelboards can accept the HEJ237225 breaker?

It is designed for legacy Federal Pacific (FPE) panelboards, including the NDP and BDP series. Installation typically requires specific bus connection hardware, such as an H-Frame twin mounting kit, to properly secure the breaker.

Can I install the HEJ237225 in a standard residential load center?

No, this is a bolt-on molded case circuit breaker designed specifically for commercial and industrial Federal Pacific panelboards. It will not fit into standard plug-on residential load centers.

Are the trip settings adjustable on the HEJ237225?

No, this breaker features a fixed thermal-magnetic trip unit. It provides standard Long-Time and Instantaneous (LI) protection without adjustable dials.

What does the LI trip function code mean on this breaker?

The LI designation indicates that the thermal-magnetic trip unit provides Long-Time (L) protection against general overloads and Instantaneous (I) protection against severe short circuits.

What wire sizes do the load-side terminals accept?

The factory-installed load-side lugs on this breaker accommodate wire gauges ranging from 4 AWG up to 300 kcmil.

What frame size does the HEJ237225 belong to?
