Product FAQs

5 answers
What type of panelboards is the LX36250 designed for?

This breaker features an I-Line style plug-in connection and is exclusively designed for use in Square D I-Line panelboards and switchboards. It is not compatible with standard QO or NQ series panels.

What does the LSI trip function indicate on this breaker?

The LSI designation means the electronic trip unit includes adjustable Long-Time, Short-Time, and Instantaneous pickup and delay settings. This allows for precise selective coordination in commercial and industrial electrical distribution systems.

What wire sizes are accepted by the lugs on the LX36250?

The terminal lugs accept either one 1 AWG to 600 kcmil conductor or two 1 AWG to 250 kcmil conductors. The lugs are rated for both aluminum and copper wiring.

Is the Square D LX36250 an obsolete frame, and what is the modern replacement?

Yes, the legacy LX frame has been superseded by the modern PowerPact L-frame series. For system upgrades, it is typically replaced by the PowerPact LJA36250U43X, which requires an HNM1BL filler plate when installed in an existing I-Line panel.

What safety precautions should be taken when installing this I-Line breaker?

Installation must be performed by a qualified electrician. Ensure the panelboard is fully de-energized before seating the plug-in jaws onto the busbars, and verify that the breaker is in the OFF position prior to installation to prevent arc flash hazards.
