Product FAQs

8 answers
What is the direct replacement for the obsolete MA36700 circuit breaker?

The MA36700 has been discontinued and replaced by the Square D PowerPacT M-frame series. The recommended direct I-Line replacement is the MGA36700, which fits the exact same panel space but features an upgraded electronic trip unit.

What is the adjustable magnetic trip range for the MA36700?

This thermal-magnetic breaker has a fixed continuous current rating of 700A and an adjustable instantaneous magnetic trip. The magnetic trip dial can be set between a low of 3,500A and a high of 7,000A depending on your system coordination requirements.

How much panel space does the MA36700 require in an I-Line switchboard?

This breaker requires 9 inches of vertical mounting space on the I-Line bus. The overall physical dimensions of the breaker frame are 9 inches wide, 6.5 inches deep, and 14 inches high.

Which lug kit is standard on the load side of the MA36700?

The standard factory load-side lug kit is the AL900MA. Each phase terminal can accept three 3/0 AWG to 500 kcmil aluminum or copper conductors.

Does the MA36700 require a separate mounting hardware kit for installation?

No separate hardware kit is required. As an I-Line style breaker, the MA36700 features factory-installed plug-on jaws on the line side that clamp directly onto the panelboard bus. Only the load side requires manual mechanical lug terminations.

What is the standard phase configuration for the MA36700?

This 3-pole breaker is factory configured for an ABC phase connection, allowing it to distribute power evenly across all three phases of a standard Square D I-Line panelboard.

Is there a higher interrupting capacity version of the MA36700 available?

Yes. If your electrical system requires a short-circuit rating greater than the standard 30kA at 480VAC, the MH36700 is the high-interrupting equivalent. It provides up to 65kA at 480VAC within the same physical frame size.

Can the MA36700 be installed in a standard unit-mount enclosure?

No. The MA36700 is exclusively designed for I-Line plug-on panels. If you need a unit-mount breaker with mechanical lugs on both the line and load sides for a standard enclosure or standalone configuration, you must use the MAL36700.
