Belonging to the Square D PowerPacT B-Frame family, the BGA36025 is a 3-pole, 25A molded case circuit breaker. It delivers consistent long-time and instantaneous (LI) protection for industrial systems. This unit mounts seamlessly into Square D I-Line panelboards using its plug-on line connection. It is the designated replacement for the discontinued FA36025. Featuring a 35kAIC rating at 480VAC, it handles high-fault conditions effectively and includes a push-to-trip mechanism.

Product FAQs
7 answers
Does the BGA36025 replace legacy Square D FA or FH frame breakers?
Yes. The PowerPacT B-frame is the designated replacement for obsolete F-frame (FA and FH) I-Line circuit breakers. It drops into the same 4.5-inch mounting space in existing Square D I-Line panelboards and switchboards, simplifying retrofits.
How much mounting space does this 3-pole breaker require on an I-Line bus?
The 3-pole BGA36025 circuit breaker requires 4.5 inches of vertical mounting space on the I-Line bus stack.
Are wire lugs included on both sides of the breaker?
No. Because this is an I-Line breaker, the line side uses plug-in jaws that connect directly to the panelboard bus. The load side includes factory-installed mechanical lugs that accept 14 to 2/0 AWG aluminum or copper wire.
Can I install the BGA36025 on a standard DIN rail?
No. The BGA36025 is designed exclusively for I-Line panelboards and switchboards. Its plug-in jaw connection prevents it from being used in standard unit-mount or DIN rail applications.
What is the continuous current rating for this breaker?
Like most standard thermal-magnetic breakers, the BGA36025 has an 80 percent continuous current rating. This means standard continuous loads should not exceed 80 percent of its 25-amp nominal rating, which is 20 amps.
Are there other PowerPacT B-frame interrupting tiers besides the G frame?
Yes. This BGA model represents the G interrupting tier. Square D also offers the PowerPacT B-frame in a standard D tier and a higher-performing J tier, allowing you to select a breaker that matches the fault current requirements of your facility.
What safety certifications does the BGA36025 hold?
This PowerPacT B-frame breaker is certified to meet several major international and North American safety standards. Its certifications include UL 489, CSA C22.2 No. 5, NOM, and IEC 60947-2.
