Product FAQs

6 answers
Is the Square D FAL26030 still manufactured?

No, the Square D F-frame series is a legacy product and is no longer in active production by Schneider Electric. However, it remains widely available for exact-match replacements in existing control panels and enclosures.

What is the modern replacement for the FAL26030?

Schneider Electric designates the PowerPacT B-frame series, specifically the BDL26030, as the direct modern replacement for the legacy FAL26030. PowerPacT H-frame breakers are also frequently used when upgrading older F-frame infrastructure.

Can I install the FAL26030 in a Square D I-Line panelboard?

No. The FAL26030 features a unit-mount, feed-thru design intended for standard enclosures, switchboards, and control panels. It lacks the plug-on jaw connections required for installation in an I-Line panelboard.

Which replacement lug kit is compatible with the FAL26030?

The FAL26030 utilizes the AL50FA lug kit, which is designed for 15A to 30A Square D F-frame circuit breakers. These lugs accept 14 to 4 AWG copper wire or 12 to 4 AWG aluminum wire.

Can I adjust the trip curve on the FAL26030?

No. The FAL26030 utilizes a fixed thermal-magnetic trip unit. Unlike newer breakers with electronic trip units, its long-time and instantaneous (LI) protection thresholds are factory-set and cannot be modified in the field.

Is the FAL26030 suitable for HVAC applications?

Yes, the FAL26030 is HACR rated. This certification means it has been tested and approved to handle the specific inrush currents and operational demands of heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration motor loads.
