Designed to mount into Square D I-Line panelboards and switchboards, the HDA260502 provides 50 amps of reliable power distribution. This two-pole PowerPact H-Frame breaker is configured with an AC phase connection and utilizes standard thermal-magnetic trip technology. It serves as an exact drop-in replacement for the legacy FA26050AC, making it ideal for facility upgrades. With an interrupting capacity of 18 kAIC at 480VAC, the unit includes a Visi-Trip indicator and carries an HACR rating.
