Delivering reliable circuit protection, the Federal Pacific NEF437100 is a 100A, three-pole molded case breaker designed for commercial environments. It utilizes proven thermal-magnetic technology to detect and interrupt damaging overloads. Engineered to match original factory specifications, this bolt-on device installs into legacy Federal Pacific NEF panelboards. With an interrupting rating of 14 kAIC at 480VAC, this HACR-rated breaker is vibration tested and suitable for reverse feeding.
Which panelboards accept the NEF437100 circuit breaker?
This N-Frame breaker is engineered exclusively as a drop-in replacement for legacy Federal Pacific NEF series panelboards.
Are there direct cross-references for this 100A Federal Pacific breaker?
Yes, the NEF437100 can serve as an exact drop-in substitute for obsolete Federal Pacific NEF433100 and NEF435100 molded case circuit breakers.
What wire sizes are accepted by the terminal lugs on the NEF437100?
The factory lugs accommodate conductors ranging from 4 AWG to 1/0 AWG, making it suitable for standard 100A commercial branch circuit wiring.
Can the NEF437100 be used in direct current applications?
Yes, in addition to its AC ratings, this thermal magnetic breaker is rated for 250VDC applications with a 10kAIC interrupting capacity.
Does the NEF437100 share the safety issues associated with Federal Pacific Stab-Lok breakers?
No. The NEF437100 is a commercial N-Frame molded case circuit breaker with a secure bolt-on connection. It is entirely distinct from the residential Stab-Lok plug-on breakers that were the subject of historical safety concerns.
Are the trip settings on the NEF437100 adjustable?
No, this breaker features a fixed thermal and fixed magnetic trip unit, meaning the long-time and instantaneous protection parameters cannot be modified in the field.

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.
