Product FAQs
8 answersWhat does the "BC" suffix mean in the FA22080BC catalog number?
The "BC" suffix indicates the specific phase connection for the breaker. It is factory-configured to connect to the B and C phases on the busbar of a Square D I-Line panelboard or switchboard.
How is the FA22080BC installed into a panelboard?
This breaker features an I-Line style plug-in connection. It mounts directly onto the busbar of compatible Square D I-Line panelboards and switchboards without the need for bolt-on hardware.
What wire sizes and conductor materials are supported by the FA22080BC terminals?
The standard lugs on this breaker accept wire gauges ranging from 14 AWG to 1/0 AWG. They are rated for use with both copper and aluminum conductors.
How does the thermal-magnetic trip unit in the FA22080BC operate?
The breaker uses a fixed thermal element to provide long-time protection against continuous overloads, and a fixed magnetic element for instantaneous protection against short circuits. This is commonly referred to as an LI trip function.
Can the FA22080BC be used in DC electrical systems?
Yes, in addition to its 240V AC rating, this breaker is rated for use in 250V DC systems, where it provides a 5 kAIC interrupting capacity.
Is the Square D FA22080BC still actively manufactured, or is it a legacy product?
The FA22080BC is part of the legacy Square D F-Frame series. While still widely used in existing I-Line panelboards, facility upgrades often replace these with the newer PowerPacT B-Frame series breakers.
What is the maximum amperage capacity of the Square D F-Frame architecture used by this breaker?
The legacy Square D F-Frame architecture is designed to support a maximum continuous current rating of 100 amps. The FA22080BC utilizes this frame with an 80-amp trip rating.
Does the FA22080BC feature a visual trip indicator?
Yes, this breaker includes the Square D Visi-Trip indicator. When the breaker trips, a highly visible red indicator appears in the window to help quickly identify the faulted circuit.

- 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!
