Part of the Square D I-Limiter series, the IF36025 is a 3-pole, 25A current-limiting molded case circuit breaker. It protects downstream equipment in commercial and industrial applications by restricting let-through energy. Featuring an I-Line plug-on connection, it installs quickly into compatible Square D panelboards. For modern upgrades, this IF-frame model is replaced by the PowerPact HRA36025. Rated for 200kAIC at 480V, it utilizes fixed thermal-magnetic trip technology.
It is designed specifically for Square D I-Line panelboards and switchboards. The breaker uses a plug-on I-Line connection for the line side and includes lugs for the load side.
What is the modern replacement for the IF36025 circuit breaker?
The IF-frame is a legacy model. For new installations or direct upgrades, the modern equivalent is the Square D PowerPact HRA36025, which matches the 25A capacity, I-Line mounting, and 200kAIC rating at 480VAC.
How does the I-Limiter feature on the IF36025 work?
As a current-limiting breaker, it clears high-level faults extremely fast, restricting the peak let-through current and energy. This provides enhanced protection for downstream circuits and allows it to be used in series-rated systems.
What wire sizes are compatible with the IF36025 load lugs?
The factory-installed lugs accept 14 AWG to 4 AWG copper wire, or 12 AWG to 4 AWG aluminum wire. Ensure proper torque specifications are followed during installation as labeled on the breaker.
Are the trip settings on the IF36025 adjustable?
No, this breaker utilizes a fixed thermal-magnetic trip unit. Both the Long-Time (thermal overload) and Instantaneous (magnetic short-circuit) trip functions are factory-set and non-adjustable.
