Product FAQs

6 answers
Which panelboards accept the FPE NB100 circuit breaker?

This breaker is specifically designed for legacy commercial systems and installs directly into Federal Pacific NB and NBLP panelboards.

Can I use this breaker in an FPE Stab-Lok residential panel?

No. The NB100 is a commercial bolt-on breaker. It will not fit in Stab-Lok enclosures, which require plug-in NA, NC, or NAJ series breakers.

What type of panel connection does the NB100 require?

It features a bolt-on mounting style. Unlike FPE plug-in breakers, this unit bolts directly to the panelboard bus for a secure commercial connection.

What wire gauge and conductor materials are supported by the NB100?

The load-side lugs are rated for both copper and aluminum (Al/Cu) conductors, accepting wire sizes from 1 AWG up to 2/0 AWG.

Are there active aftermarket replacements for the legacy NB100?

Yes, the Connecticut Electric UBIF2100NB is an ETL-listed direct substitute designed to replace the 100A, 2-pole NB100 without requiring panel modifications.

How does the thermal-magnetic trip unit function on this model?

It utilizes fixed trip settings, combining a bimetallic strip for long-time overload protection with a magnetic armature for instantaneous short-circuit protection.

    Hard to find breakers

    Had a project at a school built in the 1960’s and thought we were up a creek when confronted with ancient FPE commercial panels. Luckily we found what we needed with Suoerbreakers.
