It also functions as a seamless replacement for discontinued FA34080 breakers.

How much mounting space does this 3-pole breaker require in an I-Line panel?
The 3-pole PowerPacT B-Frame circuit breaker requires 4.5 inches of I-Line mounting space, which equates to 1.5 inches per pole.

Installed & working
Ordered this from SuperBreakers when local vendors were quoting me 25%+.
So I got a refurbished version of this breaker.
It is installed and working.
Also, service was great.
Thank you SuperBreakers!
