Product FAQs
7 answers
Is the Square D FAP36025 still in production, or has it been replaced?
The F-frame series is a legacy product. For modern upgrades and replacements, Schneider Electric designates the PowerPact B-Frame or H-Frame molded case circuit breakers, though exact retrofit requirements depend on your specific panel or motor control center.
What type of mounting does the FAP36025 require?
This breaker features a unit mount, bolt-on design. It is typically installed in Square D motor control centers, switchboards, and legacy panelboards that accept bolt-on F-frame breakers.
Can the FAP36025 be used in DC power systems?
Yes, this thermal magnetic breaker is rated for use in DC applications up to 250VDC, where it provides an interrupting capacity of 10 kAIC.
What wire sizes are accepted by the lugs on this 25A breaker?
The factory lugs accommodate copper or aluminum (Cu/Al) conductors ranging from 14 AWG to 4 AWG.
Will this FAP breaker fit into an I-Line panelboard?
No. FAP breakers are unit mount, bolt-on devices. I-Line panelboards require plug-on breakers with a specialized jaw and mounting bracket, such as the FA or FH series.
What does the LI trip function code mean on this breaker?
The LI designation indicates that the thermal magnetic trip unit provides Long-Time (L) overload protection and Instantaneous (I) short-circuit protection. Both settings are fixed on this specific model.
How can I visually identify if the FAP36025 has tripped?
This breaker features a Visi-Trip indicator that provides a clear visual confirmation when the breaker has tripped. It also includes a push-to-trip button to manually test the mechanical operation of the trip unit.
