Delivering advanced circuit protection, the Square D LJL36400U31X 400A, 3-pole PowerPacT L-Frame MCCB ensures reliable performance in commercial and industrial facilities. Designed as a unit-mount breaker with standard lugs, it installs easily into compatible Square D switchboards and motor control centers. The integrated MicroLogic 3.3 trip unit provides adjustable LI protection. It features true RMS sensing and a 65kAIC rating at 480VAC for optimal safety.
What does the "J" in the LJL36400U31X catalog number signify?
The "J" indicates the breaker's interrupting capacity tier within the PowerPacT L-Frame series. For this model, the J-tier provides high interrupting ratings of 100kA at 240VAC, 65kA at 480VAC, and 25kA at 600VAC.
Can the LJL36400U31X be installed in an I-Line panelboard?
No. The LJL36400U31X is a unit mount circuit breaker configured with lugs on both the line and load sides. For I-Line panelboard installations, an I-Line specific breaker, such as an LJA model, is required.
Are the lugs factory installed, and what wire sizes do they accept?
Yes, the LJL36400U31X comes standard with factory installed line and load lugs designed for a unit mount feed-through connection. These lugs accept two conductors per phase, ranging from 2/0 AWG to 500 kcmil, and are rated for use with both aluminum and copper wire.
What type of trip unit is included in the LJL36400U31X?
This breaker features a Micrologic 3.3 solid-state electronic trip unit. The "U31X" in the catalog number designates this specific trip unit, which provides Long-Time and Instantaneous (LI) protection capabilities.
Can I adjust the protection parameters on this PowerPacT breaker?
Yes. The integrated Micrologic 3.3 trip unit includes rotary dials on the face of the breaker. These allow you to precisely coordinate the continuous current pickup, long-time delay, and instantaneous pickup values with your specific load and coordination requirements.
Which breaker family does the LJL36400U31X belong to?
It is part of the Square D / Schneider Electric PowerPacT L-Frame family. L-Frame breakers share standardized footprint dimensions and accessory compatibility for commercial and industrial applications up to 600A.
Is the LJL36400U31X rated for 100% continuous current?
No, this breaker carries a standard 80% continuous current rating. For applications requiring a 100% rating, a different breaker catalog number featuring a "C" prefix before the trip unit designation (such as LJL36400CU31X) is required.
