Product FAQs
6 answers
What does the "AB" suffix mean in the FH26070AB catalog number?
The "AB" suffix indicates the specific phase connection for the breaker. It is configured to plug into the A and B phases on the bus of a Square D I-Line panelboard.
How does the I-Line mounting system work on this breaker?
The I-Line design uses plug-on jaw contacts that push directly onto the panelboard bus stack for the line-side connection. A captive retaining screw secures the breaker to the panelboard backpan, allowing for fast installation without line-side cabling.
Can this breaker be used in direct current systems?
Yes, while primarily used for alternating current, this breaker is also rated for direct current applications up to 250VDC. It provides a 10kA interrupting capacity when used in DC systems.
What type of protection does the LI trip unit provide?
The thermal-magnetic trip unit features Long-Time (L) and Instantaneous (I) functions. The thermal element provides a delayed trip to protect against sustained overloads, while the magnetic element trips immediately to clear short circuits.
Is the FH frame series still manufactured?
The FH series is part of Square D's legacy F-Frame family. It is considered a legacy product, but exact replacements are commonly sourced to maintain existing I-Line panelboards without needing to upgrade the entire panel.
Can I install this breaker in a standard load center?
No, this breaker is specifically designed for Square D I-Line panelboards and switchboards. It will not fit in standard QO, Homeline, or NQ load centers due to its specialized plug-on bus connection.
