Delivering 150A of continuous current, the Siemens FJ3B150 is a rugged 3-pole molded case circuit breaker for 600VAC systems. This legacy F-frame device utilizes fixed thermal-magnetic technology to ensure precise long-time and instantaneous circuit protection. Designed for commercial networks, it bolts firmly into Siemens and I-T-E FC, CDP, and SB panelboards. For modern applications, this model is officially replaced by the FD63B150. It features a 14kAIC rating at 480V.
Is the Siemens FJ3B150 the same as the I-T-E FJ3B150?
Yes. The FJ3B150 was originally manufactured by I-T-E. Following Siemens' acquisition of the company, this legacy F-frame breaker can be found branded as Siemens, I-T-E, or Gould. They share the exact same physical dimensions and electrical specifications.
What is the modern replacement for the FJ3B150 circuit breaker?
For modern applications, the legacy FJ3B150 is officially replaced by the Siemens FD63B150 or FXD63B150 molded case circuit breakers. Note that these newer replacements are not physically interchangeable with legacy F-frame breakers in older panelboards.
Which panelboards accept the FJ3B150 circuit breaker?
This bolt-on breaker is designed to mount directly into classic Siemens and I-T-E distribution panelboards and switchboards. Compatible models include the FC, FC-20, FCI, FCII, CDP, and SB series.
Can I adjust the trip settings on the FJ3B150?
No. This breaker utilizes a non-interchangeable, fixed thermal-magnetic trip unit. Both the long-time and instantaneous trip functions are factory-set and cannot be modified in the field.
Can I add a shunt trip to the FJ3B150?
Yes, internal accessories like shunt trips, auxiliary switches, and undervoltage releases are field-installable on this frame. Because the installation process can be complex on legacy I-T-E breakers, it should only be performed by an experienced electrical technician.
