Built for heavy-duty commercial applications, this 100A molded case circuit breaker utilizes an AC phase connection for specific busbar arrangements. The thermal-magnetic trip mechanism ensures reliable overcurrent and short-circuit response. It installs into Square D I-Line panelboards, utilizing the signature plug-on mounting style. For facility upgrades, this legacy F-frame component is replaced by the HDA261002. Rated at 18kAIC at 480VAC, the unit features a visual trip indicator.
This circuit breaker is designed exclusively for Square D I-Line panelboards and switchboards. It features integrated jaws that plug directly into the interior bus assembly for fast, secure installation.
What does the "AC" suffix indicate on this part number?
The "AC" suffix specifies the busbar phase connection. As a 2-pole device, this breaker is factory-configured to plug onto the A and C phases of the I-Line panelboard bus, bypassing the B phase.
Is the Square D FA24100AC obsolete, and what replaces it?
Yes, the legacy Square D F-frame series has been discontinued by the manufacturer. For facility upgrades, this component is directly replaced by the PowerPact H-frame series (specifically catalog number HDA261002), which maintains I-Line compatibility and fits the same panel space.
Can the trip points on the FA24100AC be adjusted in the field?
No, this breaker utilizes a standard thermal-magnetic trip unit with fixed thermal and fixed magnetic settings. Applications requiring field-adjustable trip curves must upgrade to a circuit breaker equipped with an electronic trip unit.
Does the FA24100AC require a separate mounting kit?
No. As an I-Line style plug-in breaker, the jaw assembly is built directly into the molded case. It simply plugs onto the panelboard bus and is secured using the integral retaining bracket and screw on the OFF end of the breaker.
Are the terminal lugs on the FA24100AC dual-rated?
Yes, the breaker is equipped with standard AL100FA mechanical lugs. These terminals are UL listed for use with both copper (14 to 1/0 AWG) and aluminum (12 to 1/0 AWG) conductors.

Great company
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.

Professional 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!

As good as new
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.
