Designed for high-capacity industrial networks, the GE SKPA36AT1200 is a 1200A, 3-pole molded case circuit breaker in the Spectra RMS family. This bolt-on component secures into Spectra Series switchboards and motor control centers. For upgrades, it is replaced by the XT7LQ312EGFF000XXX with a retrofit kit. The breaker utilizes a digital solid-state trip system with customizable LSI functions. It boasts a 100kAIC rating at 480V for superior fault interruption.

Product FAQs
5 answers
Does the SKPA36AT1200 require a rating plug to operate?
Yes, this Spectra RMS circuit breaker requires a front-mounted rating plug from the SRPK1200A series to establish its continuous ampere rating. The breaker will not function properly without the correct rating plug installed.
Why might this breaker arrive with either ABB or General Electric branding?
ABB acquired GE Industrial Solutions in 2018. As a result, Spectra RMS breakers like the SKPA36AT1200 may feature either GE or ABB branding depending on the manufacturing date, but the physical dimensions, fit, and technical specifications remain identical.
How many conductors per phase do the standard lugs on the SKPA36AT1200 accept?
The standard lug configuration accepts four 250 to 500 kcmil copper or aluminum (Cu/Al) conductors per phase.
What does the LSI trip function provide on this breaker?
The electronic LSI trip unit allows you to adjust the Long-Time, Short-Time, and Instantaneous pickup and delay settings. This provides precise overcurrent protection and selective coordination within complex electrical distribution systems.
Can the continuous current rating of the SKPA36AT1200 be adjusted below 1200A?
Yes, while the maximum frame rating is 1200A, the continuous current rating can be lowered by installing a different SRPK1200A series rating plug, such as a 1000A plug (catalog number SRPK1200A1000).
