Part of the legacy F-Frame series, this 60A MCCB provides reliable thermal-magnetic protection for commercial systems. It features a 600VAC maximum rating and handles 18kAIC at 480V. Built for unit mount configurations, the device fastens into Square D enclosures and switchboards using standard lugs. It serves as an exact match for existing FAL installations. Although superseded by the HDL36060, it remains essential for maintaining older infrastructure without panel modifications.
Yes, the FAL36060 is a discontinued legacy F-frame breaker [1.1.1]. Schneider Electric has replaced this series with the PowerPact B-frame. The closest current generation replacement is the PowerPact BDL36060, which offers equivalent ratings and a similar footprint.
What are the replacement lugs and torque specifications for the FAL36060?
This breaker uses the AL100FA mechanical lug kit. When using these lugs with 14 to 1/0 AWG copper or 12 to 1/0 AWG aluminum wire, the recommended tightening torque is approximately 50 lb-in (5.6 N-m). Always verify the torque rating printed on the breaker label before final installation.
Can the FAL36060 be reverse-fed for use as a main breaker?
Yes. Because this is a thermal-magnetic circuit breaker without specific line and load markings, it is suitable for reverse feeding. If used as a back-fed main in a panelboard, it must be properly secured to comply with the National Electrical Code.
Can I plug the FAL36060 into a Square D I-Line panelboard?
No. The FAL36060 is a unit-mount circuit breaker configured for feed-thru connections, meaning it has mechanical lugs on both the line and load ends. Breakers intended for I-Line panelboards must have a specialized plug-on jaw connection on the line side.
Are FA36060 and FAL36060 breakers the exact same?
No. While both share the same 60A, 3-pole F-frame platform, the 'L' in FAL36060 indicates that it includes factory-installed lugs on both the line and load sides. A standard FA prefix without the 'L' often indicates a breaker configured for I-Line bus connections.
