Built for demanding commercial applications, the Square D JGL36150 is a 150A, 3-pole molded case circuit breaker from the PowerPacT J-Frame family. It provides reliable protection for switchboards, motor control centers, and industrial panels. This unit mount MCCB installs easily with included line and load lugs, accepting 4 AWG to 4/0 AWG wire. Rated 65kAIC at 240V, it utilizes a thermal-magnetic trip unit with fixed thermal and adjustable magnetic settings, plus a Visi-Trip indicator.
What is the recommended lug torque for the JGL36150 circuit breaker?
The standard line and load lugs require a tightening torque of 221 lb-in (25 N.m) when using 4 AWG to 4/0 AWG aluminum or copper wire.
What is the magnetic trip adjustment range for this 150A breaker?
The thermal-magnetic trip unit features a fixed thermal overload and an adjustable magnetic short-circuit pickup. The magnetic trip can be adjusted from a low setting of 750A to a high setting of 1500A.
Can the Square D JGL36150 be reverse fed?
Yes. Because this breaker uses a standard thermal-magnetic trip unit without field-interchangeable trip restrictions, it is suitable for reverse feeding in back-fed main applications.
What is the difference between the JGL36150, JDL36150, and JLL36150?
The middle letter in the catalog number indicates the interrupting capacity at 480V. The JDL36150 is rated for 18kAIC, the JGL36150 is rated for 35kAIC, and the JLL36150 is rated for 100kAIC at 480V.
What type of enclosures or panels accept this unit mount breaker?
As a unit mount MCCB, it is designed to be installed on a mounting pan or backplate. It is compatible with Square D J-Frame enclosures, industrial control panels, switchboards, and motor control centers. It is not compatible with I-Line panelboards, which require a plug-on bracket.
Does this breaker include a push-to-trip button for testing?
Yes, the PowerPacT J-Frame series includes an integral push-to-trip button on the front cover. This allows electricians to manually trip the breaker to verify the mechanical operation of the trip mechanism.
