Product FAQs

6 answers
What panelboards accept the NEF421050 circuit breaker?

This breaker is designed as an exact fit component for legacy Federal Pacific NEF panelboards. It mounts directly into the panel without requiring mounting adapters.

Is there a modern substitute available for the Federal Pacific NEF421050?

Yes, the UBIF0250N is a verified aftermarket substitute that can be used to replace this legacy N-frame model in existing Federal Pacific enclosures.

Can the NEF421050 be used in reverse feed applications?

Yes, this molded case circuit breaker is suitable for reverse feed setups, allowing it to be back-fed in compatible commercial and industrial distribution systems.

What protection does the LI trip function provide on this breaker?

The LI designation indicates Long-Time and Instantaneous trip functions. The long-time element provides delayed tripping for sustained overloads, while the instantaneous element trips immediately to clear short circuits.

Is the NEF421050 part of the Federal Pacific Stab-Lok line?

No. The NEF421050 is a commercial-grade N-frame molded case circuit breaker. It utilizes a completely different design and mounting style than the residential Stab-Lok series.

Does this breaker feature an interchangeable trip unit?

No, the NEF421050 is constructed with a fixed, non-interchangeable thermal-magnetic trip unit.

    Great service & pricing

    Superbreakers did a great job for us. We called and asked if the breakers were actually in their possession. Withing 30 minutes they called us back (which is rare these days), and we got our breakers the next morning.
