Delivering advanced microprocessor-based sensing, the Schneider Electric LGL36600U33X is a 600A, 3-pole electronic trip circuit breaker. It features a Micrologic 3.3S trip unit, allowing users to configure LSI parameters for optimal system coordination. Designed for unit-mount installations, this L-Frame breaker connects via lugs within commercial panelboards and switchboards. It provides a robust 35 kAIC interrupting capacity at 480VAC, a trip-free mechanism, and a visual trip indicator.
What does the U33X suffix mean on the LGL36600U33X?
The U33X suffix identifies the factory-installed MicroLogic 3.3 S electronic trip unit. This provides adjustable LSI (Long-Time, Short-Time, and Instantaneous) protection functions. For comparison, a U31X suffix indicates a MicroLogic 3.3 trip unit with standard LI protection, while a U43X suffix identifies a MicroLogic 5.3 A trip unit with an integrated ammeter.
How do I upgrade to a higher interrupting rating if 35kA at 480V is insufficient?
The G in the LGL36600U33X part number indicates a 35kA at 480VAC interrupting rating. If your application requires a higher interrupting capacity, you can step up to the J-interrupting tier (65kA at 480VAC) using catalog number LJL36600U33X, or the L-interrupting tier (100kA at 480VAC) using catalog number LLL36600U33X.
What is the I-Line plug-on equivalent of this unit-mount breaker?
The LGL36600U33X is a unit-mount breaker with feed-thru lugs on both the line and load sides. If you require the I-Line plug-on version for a Square D I-Line distribution panel, the correct catalog number is LGC36600U33X.
Is this breaker rated for 80 percent or 100 percent continuous current?
The LGL36600U33X is a standard 80 percent rated circuit breaker. Applications requiring a 100 percent continuous current rating will require a different specific frame configuration.
What is the recommended tightening torque for the factory wire lugs?
The breaker comes with factory AL600LS52K3 mechanical lugs which accommodate two 2/0 AWG to 500 kcmil aluminum or copper conductors per phase. The required tightening torque for these wire binding screws is 442 lb-in (50 N.m).
Can the LGL36600U33X be back-fed or reverse connected?
Yes. PowerPacT L-Frame circuit breakers equipped with factory-sealed MicroLogic electronic trip units are suitable for reverse connection (back-feeding) applications.
Can I field-install internal accessories in this PowerPacT L-Frame breaker?
Yes. The breaker design allows for field-installable internal accessories. You can install auxiliary contacts (OF), alarm switches (SD), overcurrent trip switches (SDE), shunt trips (MX), and undervoltage releases (MN) behind the front accessory cover.
