Part of the legacy 999 frame series, the 999315 is a 3-pole molded case circuit breaker built for commercial power distribution. It delivers reliable thermal-magnetic trip functions for standard overcurrent protection. This bolt-on unit installs into Square D ML panelboards and compatible motor control centers. As an obsolete ML-1 type breaker, it serves as an exact replacement to keep older 600VAC infrastructure operational. Rated for 15 amps, it features a 10kAIC capacity at 600VAC.

Product FAQs
7 answers
Which panelboards accept the Square D 999315 circuit breaker?
The 999315 is engineered specifically for legacy Square D ML panelboards and Square D motor control centers.
Is the Square D 999315 still in active production?
No, the 999315 is an obsolete, legacy circuit breaker. It is primarily sourced as an exact replacement component to maintain existing infrastructure rather than for new installations.
What is the frame type designation for the 999315?
This breaker belongs to the Square D 99 frame group and is commonly identified in legacy documentation as a Type ML-1 molded case circuit breaker.
How is the 999315 secured inside the panelboard?
This breaker features a bolt-on connection type. It must be bolted directly to the panelboard bus, ensuring a secure and reliable connection in older motor control centers and ML panels.
Does the 999315 come with load-side terminals?
Yes, this breaker is equipped with standard lug terminals for securing the load-side wiring.
Are the trip settings on the 999315 adjustable?
No, the thermal-magnetic trip unit on this breaker is fully fixed. Both the long-time thermal overload protection and the instantaneous magnetic short-circuit protection are factory set and cannot be adjusted in the field.
What type of protection does the LI trip function provide on this breaker?
The LI designation indicates that the breaker provides Long-Time (thermal) protection against sustained overcurrents and Instantaneous (magnetic) protection against sudden short circuits.
