Product FAQs
7 answersDoes the BGL36070 replace older Square D circuit breakers?
Yes, the PowerPacT B-frame BGL36070 is the direct replacement for legacy F-frame breakers, including the FAL36070 and FHL36070, commonly used in industrial control panels and enclosures.
Can the BGL36070 be mounted on a DIN rail?
Yes, this unit mount breaker features a built-in clip on the back that allows it to be installed directly onto a standard 15 x 35 mm DIN rail, in addition to traditional back pan screw mounting.
What are the torque specifications for the EverLink lugs on the BGL36070?
The EverLink lugs require 44.3 lb-in (5 N.m) of torque for 14 to 4 AWG wire, and 79.6 lb-in (9 N.m) for 3 to 3/0 AWG wire.
What is the advantage of the EverLink lugs included on this breaker?
EverLink lugs feature a patented spring-based design that maintains constant pressure on the wire. This compensates for thermal expansion and prevents cable loosening over time, ensuring a secure connection for both fine-stranded and rigid conductors.
What does the G in the BGL36070 catalog number signify?
The G indicates the breaker's interrupting rating tier within the PowerPacT B-frame series. It provides a maximum interrupting capacity of 65kA at 240VAC, 35kA at 480VAC, and 18kA at 600VAC.
What types of equipment is the BGL36070 designed for?
This 3-pole, 70A breaker is designed for power distribution and thermal-magnetic protection in industrial control panels, switchboards, and commercial enclosures.
Does the BGL36070 have a push-to-trip feature?
Yes, all PowerPacT B-frame circuit breakers include an integral push-to-trip button on the front cover. This allows you to manually trip the breaker to verify the mechanical operation of the trip mechanism.
