Delivering robust 3-phase protection, the Square D LHL36125 functions as a 125A molded case circuit breaker. It utilizes thermal-magnetic trip technology with fixed long-time and adjustable instantaneous (LI) functions for precise overcurrent response. This unit mount MCCB is built for legacy Square D L-Frame enclosures and panelboards. When upgrading, it is replaced by the PowerPact HGL36125, requiring a frame change or retrofit kit. The breaker features a 65kAIC rating at 240VAC.

Product FAQs
4 answers
What are the wire size requirements for the LHL36125 lugs?
The standard mechanical lugs on the LHL36125 are dual-rated for aluminum or copper conductors. Each lug can accept either a single wire ranging from 1 AWG to 600 kcmil, or two wires ranging from 1 AWG to 250 kcmil per phase.
Can the LHL36125 unit-mount breaker be converted for use in an I-Line panelboard?
No. Unit-mount breakers like the LHL36125 cannot be field-modified with I-Line jaws. You must use a factory-assembled I-Line breaker for I-Line panelboard applications.
How does the adjustable magnetic trip work on this breaker?
The LHL36125 features a thermal-magnetic trip unit with a fixed thermal element for long-time overload protection and an adjustable magnetic element. The magnetic dial allows you to fine-tune the instantaneous short-circuit pickup to coordinate with specific load requirements.
Is the Square D LHL36125 still actively manufactured?
The LHL36125 is a legacy L-Frame breaker that was officially discontinued by Schneider Electric in early 2021. It is typically sourced as a direct replacement part for existing switchboards and enclosures.
