Product FAQs

4 answers
What is the modern replacement for the legacy LHL26400 circuit breaker?

The LHL26400 is a legacy Square D L-Frame breaker. For modern panel upgrades or new installations, it is typically replaced by the PowerPact L-Frame series, such as the LGL26400, though the LHL26400 remains available for direct replacements.

What is the adjustable magnetic trip range for this 400A breaker?

The LHL26400 features a fixed thermal and adjustable magnetic trip unit (LI). The instantaneous magnetic trip can be adjusted from a low setting of 2000A to a high setting of 4000A.

What are the accepted wire sizes and lug torque specifications for the LHL26400?

This breaker comes standard with AL400LA lugs. These lugs accept either one 1 AWG to 600 kcmil wire or two 1 AWG to 250 kcmil wires (Al/Cu). The required tightening torque is 371 lb-in (42 N.m).

How is the LHL26400 mounted in a panel?

This is a unit-mount (feed-thru) circuit breaker designed to be bolted directly to the chassis or mounting pan in compatible Square D L-Frame enclosures, switchboards, and panelboards. It cannot be used in I-Line panels, which require plug-on I-Line variants.
