Description
Engineered for industrial environments, the Square D FAL36035-1212 is a 3-pole, 35A molded case circuit breaker from the legacy F-Frame series. It provides robust thermal-magnetic protection for systems up to 600VAC. This unit-mount breaker installs into standard Square D enclosures and motor control centers. For future upgrades, it crosses over to the newer HGL36035 frame. The 1212 catalog suffix indicates a factory-installed auxiliary switch for remote status monitoring.Specifications

Product FAQs
6 answersWhat does the -1212 suffix mean on the FAL36035-1212?
The -1212 catalog suffix indicates that this breaker includes a factory-installed auxiliary switch. It provides one normally open (1A) and one normally closed (1B) contact for remote status monitoring.
What is the modern replacement for the legacy FAL36035-1212?
For facility upgrades, this legacy F-Frame breaker crosses over to the newer Square D PowerPact H-Frame series, specifically the HGL36035. Note that you will also need to add an auxiliary switch accessory to the new breaker to match the -1212 functionality.
Can I install the FAL36035-1212 in a Square D I-Line panelboard?
No. The FAL36035-1212 is a unit-mount, feed-thru circuit breaker designed for standard enclosures, switchboards, and motor control centers. It does not have the plug-on jaw connections required for I-Line panelboards. For I-Line applications, you need an FA or FH series breaker.
Can the FAL36035-1212 be reverse-fed?
Yes. Standard Square D F-Frame thermal-magnetic breakers are suitable for reverse feeding. Because there are no restrictive LINE and LOAD markings on the terminals, you can connect the incoming power to either the top or bottom lugs.
What does the LI trip function mean on this breaker?
The LI designation indicates that the thermal-magnetic trip unit provides Long-Time (L) and Instantaneous (I) protection. The Long-Time function protects against sustained overloads, while the Instantaneous function trips the breaker immediately during a short circuit. Both settings are fixed on this model.
Does this breaker provide ground fault or arc fault protection?
No. The FAL36035-1212 features a standard thermal-magnetic trip unit designed for basic overcurrent and short-circuit protection. It does not include GFCI, AFCI, or equipment ground fault protection capabilities.
