Engineered for demanding industrial environments, the Square D MH36600 provides robust 600A overcurrent protection. This 3-pole breaker utilizes proven thermal-magnetic trip technology with long-time and instantaneous (LI) functions. Designed for Square D I-Line panelboards and switchboards, it features a secure plug-on connection. As a legacy M-Frame unit, it is replaced by the PowerPact MJA36600. Rated 65kAIC at 480V, it includes a Visi-Trip indicator for quick fault detection.

Product FAQs
6 answers
How much mounting space does this M-frame breaker occupy?
The MH36600 requires 9 inches of I-Line mounting space within a compatible panelboard or switchboard.
What type of enclosure is required for the MH36600?
This breaker features an I-Line style plug-in connection designed exclusively for Square D I-Line panelboards and switchboards. It is not compatible with standard load centers or traditional bolt-on commercial panels.
What are the conductor limits for the factory terminal lugs?
The standard mechanical lugs accept up to three conductors per pole. They are compatible with both aluminum and copper wire sizes ranging from 3/0 AWG to 500 kcmil.
How does the adjustable magnetic trip function work on this breaker?
While the thermal long-time protection is fixed at 600 amps, the instantaneous magnetic trip is adjustable. This allows electricians to modify the short-circuit pickup threshold for better selective coordination with other breakers in the distribution system.
Are ground fault or short-time delay functions included on the MH36600?
No. This breaker is equipped with a basic thermal magnetic trip unit, providing only long-time and instantaneous (LI) protection functions.
Is this breaker suitable for direct current installations?
Yes. Along with its standard AC ratings, the breaker is rated for 250VDC applications and provides a 14kA interrupting capacity for DC systems.
