Product FAQs

7 answers
Is the Square D FAL22030 circuit breaker obsolete?

Yes, the Square D F-frame series is a legacy product line that has been discontinued by Schneider Electric. Exact replacements are still sourced to keep existing panels as-built, avoiding the need for modern PowerPact retrofit adapters and bus modifications.

What type of panels accept the FAL22030?

This is a unit-mount (feed-thru) breaker, meaning it mounts directly to a backpan or mounting plate using screws. It does not plug or bolt onto a panelboard busbar. It is commonly used in Square D enclosures, control panels, and switchboards.

Does this breaker mount in an I-Line panelboard?

No. The FAL22030 is a unit-mount breaker with lugs on both ends. It does not have the plug-on jaw connections required for Square D I-Line panelboards.

What wire sizes are supported by the FAL22030 lugs?

The factory-installed line and load lugs accept 14 AWG to 4 AWG copper or aluminum wire.

Can the FAL22030 be used in DC applications?

Yes, this thermal-magnetic breaker is rated for DC systems up to 250VDC, with a maximum interrupting capacity of 5kAIC.

Are the trip settings adjustable on the FAL22030?

No, this breaker features fixed thermal and fixed magnetic trip settings. It provides standard long-time and instantaneous protection that cannot be adjusted in the field.

What does the LI trip function code mean on this breaker?

The LI designation indicates that the breaker provides Long-Time thermal protection against overloads and Instantaneous magnetic protection against short circuits.
