Product FAQs
6 answersWhich panelboards accept the FA36050 circuit breaker?
It mounts exclusively in Square D I-Line panelboards and switchboards. The breaker features a specialized plug-on jaw assembly that connects directly to the panel bus stack.
What is the modern replacement for the legacy FA36050?
Schneider Electric has replaced legacy F-frame molded case circuit breakers with the PowerPact H-frame series. The direct modern substitute is the PowerPact HDA36050, which matches the 50A rating, trip characteristics, and I-Line form factor.
Can the FA36050 be applied in direct current systems?
Yes. This thermal-magnetic breaker is rated for DC applications up to 250VDC, delivering a 10kA interrupting capacity for DC power distribution networks.
Does this breaker require a separate line-side mounting hardware kit?
No. As an I-Line circuit breaker, the phase connections clamp directly onto the panelboard busbars. The load side utilizes standard mechanical lugs for wire terminations, so no additional line-side mounting hardware is required.
Is the FA36050 suitable for HVAC motor applications?
Yes, it carries an HACR rating. This makes the breaker approved for group motor applications in commercial heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration equipment.
What conductor materials are supported by the factory lugs?
The standard mechanical lugs on the FA36050 are dual-rated for both copper and aluminum wire, accepting conductor sizes from 14 AWG to 1/0 AWG.

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.
