Product FAQs

9 answers
How is the HDL26050 circuit breaker mounted?

This is a unit mount breaker. It is designed to be bolted directly to a backpan or mounting surface in industrial control panels, switchboards, or PowerPacT H-Frame enclosures. It does not plug onto a busbar like an I-Line breaker.

What type of wire connections does this breaker use?

The breaker comes standard with feed-thru lugs on both the line and load sides. The factory-installed lugs accept 14 AWG to 3/0 AWG aluminum or copper wire.

Can the trip settings on the HDL26050 be adjusted?

No. This breaker features a thermal-magnetic trip unit with fixed thermal and fixed magnetic settings for both long-time and instantaneous protection.

What frame size is the HDL26050?

It is part of the Square D PowerPacT H-Frame family. This frame size is standardized for 15A to 150A breakers, allowing for consistent mounting dimensions across different amperages.

What does the D in the HDL26050 part number indicate?

The D designates the interrupting capacity level within the PowerPacT H-Frame series. For this breaker, the D rating provides an 18kA interrupting capacity at 480VAC.

Is this breaker suitable for direct current applications?

Yes, the HDL26050 is rated for use in DC systems up to 250VDC, with an interrupting rating of 20kA.

What is the replacement lug kit for the HDL26050?

The standard mechanical lug kit for this breaker is part number AL150HD. This kit includes three lugs and accepts 14 AWG to 3/0 AWG aluminum or copper wire.

Does the HDL26050 include a push-to-trip feature?

Yes, all PowerPacT circuit breakers feature an integral push-to-trip button on the cover, allowing you to manually trip the breaker to verify the mechanism is working correctly.

What safety precautions are required when installing this breaker?

Always de-energize the switchboard or control panel before installation. Ensure all wire connections are torqued to the manufacturer specifications printed on the breaker label to prevent overheating.
