Product FAQs
8 answersWhat does the "BC" suffix mean on the FA22030BC?
The "BC" suffix indicates that the breaker's line-side jaw connectors are factory-configured to attach to the B and C phases of an I-Line bus.
Can I change the phase connection on this breaker in the field?
No, the phase connection on legacy FA-series I-Line breakers is permanently factory-configured. You must purchase the correct phase configuration, such as AB, BC, or AC, for the specific slot in your panelboard.
How does the FA22030BC mount into a panelboard?
It utilizes an I-Line style plug-in connection. The line side snaps directly onto the panelboard's bus assembly, while the load side uses standard mechanical lugs for wire termination. A retaining bracket and screw secure the breaker to the backpan.
Is the FA22030BC still actively manufactured by Square D?
The FA series is a legacy F-Frame breaker that has been phased out by Schneider Electric. For modern panelboard upgrades, facilities typically transition to the equivalent PowerPact B-Frame or H-Frame I-Line circuit breakers.
What type of trip unit does this breaker use?
It is equipped with a non-interchangeable thermal-magnetic trip unit. It provides fixed long-time and instantaneous (LI) protection against overloads and short circuits, meaning the trip thresholds cannot be adjusted.
What wire material is compatible with the standard lugs?
The factory-installed lugs are dual-rated for both copper (Cu) and aluminum (Al) conductors. They accept wire sizes ranging from 14 AWG to 4 AWG.
Can this breaker be used in standard QO or NQ load centers?
No, the FA22030BC is exclusively designed for Square D I-Line panelboards and switchboards. It will not fit in standard residential load centers or NQ/NF series commercial panelboards.
How can I verify if the breaker has tripped?
When the breaker trips due to an overcurrent event, the operating handle will move to a center position between ON and OFF. To reset it, you must first push the handle completely to the OFF position before turning it back ON.

Ordered on a Saturday evening, paid for two day shipping and it arrived on time and in perfect condition. Would 100 percent be using this company going forward, beat out pricing and shipping times for all my local supply houses. Plus the staff were great to deal with.
- AHAnn H.Verified BuyerReviewingSquare D FA36100 - 100A 3 Pole Molded Case Circuit BreakerI recommend this productRated 5 out of 5 stars8/22/26Professional Service
So far, so good! The circuit breaker was installed along with a new compressor for our church AC, and everything is now working well.
The company has been professional, dependable, and reputable throughout the process. I had a question after the installation, and it was answered immediately. I also appreciated that they followed up and asked for feedback to make sure the new part was working properly and that we were satisfied with the service.
It’s refreshing to deal with a company that not only has quality products but also cares about its customers after the job is completed. I would definitely recommend them!

The Square D FA32100 circuit breaker (refurbished) was as good as a new breaker, without exception. There was no wear and tear or any marks at all. It was basically new. It is an excellent choice and a great product without having to pay the cost of a new breaker.
