Product FAQs

7 answers
Is the Square D FA series obsolete, and what is the modern replacement?

Yes, the legacy F-Frame (FA series) breakers are obsolete for new installations. The modern replacement is the Square D PowerPact H-Frame series, which is designed to fit into the same legacy I-Line panelboards.

What replacement lugs are compatible with the FAB36020?

This breaker accepts AL50FA mechanical lugs on the load side, which are designed to accommodate 14-4 AWG copper or aluminum wire.

Is the FAB36020 HACR rated?

Yes, this breaker is HACR rated, meaning it is approved for use with heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration equipment that requires this specific overcurrent protection rating.

How does the I-Line connection work on the FAB36020?

The I-Line mounting system features a blow-on, plug-on design where the breaker jaws grip the panelboard bus bar. A captive mounting screw then bolts the breaker securely to the backpan.

Can I use this breaker in a standard QO or Homeline load center?

No. The FAB36020 features an I-Line style bolt-on connection and is strictly compatible with industrial I-Line panelboards and switchboards. It will not fit in residential QO or Homeline load centers.

What does the "B" in the FAB36020 catalog number signify?

In the FA series catalog numbering, the "B" indicates that the breaker is configured for an I-Line panelboard connection. This means it has a plug-on jaw on the line side and a standard lug on the load side.

What is the difference between the FAB36020 and the FHB36020?

The primary difference is the interrupting capacity. The FA series is standard interrupting, while the FH series provides a higher interrupting rating for systems with greater available fault current.

    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.
