Engineered for commercial distribution, this 3-pole, 15A molded case circuit breaker is part of the Square D PowerPacT B-Frame series. It provides reliable long-time and instantaneous (LI) protection. The breaker utilizes an I-Line mounting style to install into compatible Square D panelboards. It is also an exact cross-reference for legacy FA36015 models. With an interrupt rating of 18 kAIC at 480Y/277VAC, it handles demanding fault currents and is HACR rated for HVAC applications.
Which legacy Square D circuit breaker does the BDA36015 replace?
The BDA36015 serves as a direct replacement for the discontinued Square D FA36015. It utilizes the exact same I-Line mounting footprint to allow for simple retrofits and upgrades in existing panels.
How does this PowerPacT B-frame breaker connect to the electrical system?
It utilizes shrouded I-Line plug-on jaws on the line side that engage directly onto the panelboard busbar. The load side features standard mechanical lugs that accept 14 to 2/0 AWG aluminum or copper wire.
Can I install the BDA36015 in an older legacy I-Line switchboard?
Yes. PowerPacT B-frame I-Line breakers are fully backward compatible with legacy Square D I-Line panelboards and switchboards, allowing for seamless integration without modifying the existing panel space.
Is the BDA36015 rated for use in HVAC equipment?
Yes, this molded case circuit breaker is HACR rated, making it compliant for providing thermal-magnetic overcurrent protection in heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration systems.
Is the BDA36015 rated for 100 percent or 80 percent continuous current?
This circuit breaker carries a standard 80 percent continuous current rating. For this 15-amp breaker, continuous loads operating for three hours or more must not exceed 12 amps.
How can I manually test the mechanical operation of this breaker?
The unit is equipped with an integral push-to-trip button on the front cover. Pressing this button manually actuates the trip mechanism to verify proper mechanical function during panel maintenance and safety checks.

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!
