Description
The FAP36015 is a 3-pole, 15A MCCB from Square D's legacy F-Frame series. It delivers robust overcurrent protection for commercial electrical systems. This bolt-on breaker installs into Square D motor control centers, switchboards, and enclosures. It serves as a replacement for older installations, while new designs use the PowerPacT H-Frame. Rated for 18 kAIC at 480VAC, the unit features fixed thermal-magnetic trip settings. It includes a Visi-Trip indicator and is HACR rated.Specifications

Product FAQs
8 answersWhat equipment is the Square D FAP36015 compatible with?
The FAP36015 is a bolt-on F-Frame circuit breaker designed for use in Square D motor control centers, switchboards, and industrial enclosures. It requires a hard-bolted connection to the bus and is not compatible with standard plug-on QO or Homeline load centers.
Is there a modern replacement for the legacy FAP36015 circuit breaker?
Yes. The FAP36015 is part of the legacy Square D F-Frame series. While exact replacements are still sourced to maintain existing equipment, the modern equivalent for new panel designs is the Square D PowerPacT H-Frame series. You will need to verify your required interrupting capacity and mounting hardware before upgrading.
What size wire do the lugs on the FAP36015 accept?
The factory-installed load side lugs on this breaker accept 14 AWG to 4 AWG copper or aluminum wire. Always use a calibrated torque wrench to tighten the terminals to the exact specifications printed on the breaker label to ensure a safe connection.
Can the FAP36015 be used in DC power applications?
Yes. In addition to its standard AC voltage ratings up to 600VAC, the FAP36015 is rated for 250VDC applications, where it provides an interrupting capacity of 10 kAIC.
Are the trip settings on the FAP36015 adjustable?
No. This breaker features a fixed thermal-magnetic trip unit. It provides long-time (thermal) overload protection and instantaneous (magnetic) short-circuit protection, but neither the thermal nor the magnetic trip points can be adjusted in the field.
Does the FAP36015 feature a visual trip indicator?
Yes, this breaker includes a Visi-Trip indicator. When the breaker trips due to an overcurrent or short circuit, the handle snaps to a center position and a high-visibility indicator appears, allowing electricians to quickly identify the tripped breaker in a crowded switchboard.
Is the FAP36015 rated for use with HVAC equipment?
Yes, the FAP36015 is HACR rated. This means it has been tested and approved for use with heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration equipment that requires a dedicated HACR-rated overcurrent protection device.
Does the FAP36015 mount onto a standard DIN rail?
No, the FAP36015 is a unit-mount, bolt-on circuit breaker. It must be bolted directly to the panel pan or busbar using the appropriate mounting hardware. It is not designed for DIN rail installation.
