Product FAQs

5 answers
How does the I-Line connection work on the PGA36080?

This breaker features an I-Line style plug-on connection for the line side, allowing it to snap directly into the busbar of Square D I-Line panelboards and switchboards. The load side utilizes standard mechanical lugs for wire termination.

What does the G in the PGA36080 catalog number indicate?

The G designates the interrupting rating tier for this PowerPacT P-frame breaker. It provides a short-circuit current rating of 65kA at 240VAC, 35kA at 480VAC, and 18kA at 600VAC.

Which trip unit comes standard with the base PGA36080 breaker?

The base PGA36080 comes with a fixed ET 1.0I electronic trip unit, which provides basic Long-Time and Instantaneous (LI) protection. For interchangeable Micrologic trip units, a different catalog suffix (such as U31A or U33A) is required.

What is the recommended tightening torque for the load-side lugs on this breaker?

The standard AL800M23K mechanical lugs on this 800A breaker should be torqued to 442.5 lb-in (50 N.m) for 3/0 AWG to 500 kcmil aluminum or copper conductors.

Can the PGA36080 replace older Square D 800A I-Line breakers?

Yes, the PowerPacT P-frame PGA36080 serves as a modern drop-in replacement for legacy Square D 800A I-Line breakers, such as the MA36800.
