Serving as a reliable component for power distribution, the KDL32125 is a 125A, 3-pole molded case circuit breaker by Square D. It is designed to safeguard commercial and industrial electrical infrastructure. The breaker mounts into Square D QO 3-phase load centers, switchboards, and compatible enclosures using a feed-thru connection. Delivering a 25 kAIC interrupt capacity at 240VAC, it utilizes thermal-magnetic trip technology (LI) and accommodates 6 AWG to 350 kcmil aluminum or copper wire.
What does the D in the KDL32125 catalog number signify?
In Square D legacy K-frame nomenclature, the D indicates an interrupting rating of 25kAIC at 240V AC.
What enclosures and panels are compatible with the KDL32125?
This unit-mount breaker is designed for installation in Square D QO 3-phase load centers, standalone Square D enclosures, and compatible switchboards.
What wire sizes are accepted by the lugs on this breaker?
The factory lugs accommodate conductor sizes ranging from 6 AWG to 350 kcmil and are rated for both copper and aluminum wiring.
How is the KDL32125 circuit breaker mounted?
It features a unit-mount, feed-thru design. It bolts directly to the enclosure backpan or mounting surface rather than plugging onto a busbar, utilizing lugs on both the line and load sides.
Is the Square D KDL32125 still actively manufactured?
The legacy K-frame series is obsolete. Facilities looking for a modern equivalent typically migrate to the Square D PowerPact series, though retrofitting may require enclosure modifications or adapter hardware.
How does the trip unit on the KDL32125 operate?
It utilizes a thermal magnetic trip mechanism with fixed thermal and fixed magnetic settings. This provides standard LI (Long-Time and Instantaneous) protection against overloads and short circuits.
What are the primary safety requirements when installing this K-frame breaker?
Installation must be performed by a qualified electrician. Always de-energize the switchboard or load center, verify zero voltage with a calibrated meter, and follow all applicable NEC guidelines and local codes before terminating conductors.
