A drop-in replacement for aging infrastructure, this 100A, two-pole molded case circuit breaker restores power distribution in Federal Pacific panelboards. It handles demanding commercial and industrial loads up to 600VAC and 250VDC. The bolt-on design ensures a secure connection within legacy N-frame enclosures, eliminating the need for retrofits. Delivering 18 kAIC interrupting capacity at 480VAC, it utilizes proven thermal magnetic trip technology to clear overloads and short circuits.
What enclosures or panelboards accept the NFJ623100 circuit breaker?
This N-Frame breaker is engineered as a direct, bolt-on replacement for legacy Federal Pacific (FPE) panelboards, eliminating the need for custom retrofits.
Does this breaker require specific mounting hardware for installation?
Yes, installing this N-Frame breaker into a Federal Pacific panelboard requires the appropriate legacy mounting hardware strap kit to secure the bolt-on connections to the busbar.
How does the adjustable trip unit function on this breaker?
The NFJ623100 utilizes a thermal-magnetic trip unit with a fixed thermal element for long-time overload protection and an adjustable magnetic element, allowing electricians to fine-tune the instantaneous short-circuit response.
Can I replace this Federal Pacific breaker with a modern equivalent from another brand?
No direct modern cross-reference exists that matches the exact physical dimensions and bolt-on configuration of the legacy FPE N-Frame. Maintaining existing Federal Pacific infrastructure requires an exact NFJ frame replacement.
What are the acceptable wire gauges for the terminal lugs?
The included load-side lugs are designed to safely accommodate conductor sizes ranging from 4 AWG up to 300 kcmil. Ensure proper torque specifications are followed during installation.
Does this breaker feature interchangeable trip units?
No, the NFJ623100 is constructed with a non-interchangeable trip unit. The thermal-magnetic protection components are factory sealed within the molded case.
