Delivering reliable thermal-magnetic protection, this 3-pole, 125A circuit breaker serves as a staple of Square D's LA frame lineup. It is engineered for commercial applications, providing standard long-time and instantaneous (LI) trip functions. Featuring a plug-on I-Line mounting style, the breaker installs into compatible Square D I-Line panelboards. Facilities looking to modernize can replace this unit with the newer PowerPacT H-Frame HJA36125.
What is the adjustable magnetic trip range for the Square D LA36125?
The instantaneous magnetic trip function on this thermal-magnetic breaker can be adjusted from a low setting of 625 Amps to a high setting of 1250 Amps.
How many conductors can be landed on the standard lugs of the LA36125?
The standard mechanical lugs are designed to accept either a single large conductor from 1 AWG to 600 kcmil, or dual smaller conductors from 1 AWG to 250 kcmil per phase. They support both aluminum and copper wiring.
Is the LA36125 compatible with NQ or NF lighting panelboards?
No. This breaker features an I-Line plug-on connection and is exclusively compatible with Square D I-Line power panelboards and switchboards.
What is the modern PowerPact alternative to the legacy LA36125?
For new installations or complete panel upgrades, Schneider Electric has transitioned the legacy LA-Frame series to the modern PowerPact series. The PowerPact HJA36125 is the direct modern equivalent for 125 Amp, 3-pole I-Line applications.
Can the LA36125 breaker be used in DC electrical systems?
Yes. This molded case circuit breaker is rated for use in 250VDC systems with a maximum interrupting capacity of 10 kAIC, making it suitable for industrial DC control circuits and battery systems.
What do the thermal and magnetic elements in the LA36125 trip unit control?
The fixed thermal element provides long-time protection against sustained overloads. The adjustable magnetic dial allows you to tune the instantaneous trip threshold for sudden short-circuit faults.
