Product FAQs
8 answers
What is the lug torque specification for the HGL26100?
The standard AL150HD lugs require 50 lb-in for 14-10 AWG wire and 120 lb-in for 8-3/0 AWG wire. A 3/16-inch Allen wrench is required for the wire binding screw.
What enclosures and panels are compatible with the HGL26100?
This unit-mount breaker is designed for PowerPacT H-Frame enclosures, switchboards, and industrial control panels. It can also be installed as a main breaker in Square D NF and NQ panelboards.
Is the HGL26100 suitable for reverse feeding?
Yes. Standard unit-mount PowerPacT H-Frame thermal-magnetic circuit breakers feature factory-sealed trip units and are suitable for reverse-fed applications.
What is the difference between the HGL26100 and the HDL26100 or HJL26100?
The difference is the interrupting rating. The HGL26100 has a G rating (65kA at 240VAC, 35kA at 480VAC). The HDL26100 has a lower D rating (25kA at 240VAC, 18kA at 480VAC), while the HJL26100 offers a higher J rating (100kA at 240VAC, 65kA at 480VAC). All three share the same physical dimensions and mounting footprint.
What is the difference between the HGL26100 and the HGA26100?
The HGL26100 is a unit-mount circuit breaker that uses mechanical lugs for wire connections on both the line and load sides. The HGA26100 is the I-Line version, which plugs directly into an I-Line panelboard bus on the line side and has lugs only on the load side.
Does the HGL26100 include a push-to-trip button?
Yes, all PowerPacT circuit breakers feature an integral push-to-trip button on the cover. This allows you to manually trip the breaker to verify the mechanical operation of the trip mechanism.
What does the G in the HGL26100 catalog number indicate?
The G designates the interrupting rating level of the breaker. For the PowerPacT H-Frame, the G-rating provides 65kA at 240VAC, 35kA at 480VAC, and 18kA at 600VAC.
Can the HGL26100 be used in DC applications?
Yes, this thermal-magnetic breaker is rated for DC applications. It provides an interrupting rating of 20kA at 250VDC and 20kA at 500VDC.
