Engineered with an adjustable electronic trip unit, the MJL36800E10 3-pole molded case circuit breaker allows amperage settings between 300A and 800A. This flexibility provides superior coordination for commercial applications requiring precise LI protection. The unit-mount breaker installs into Square D switchboards and motor control centers. It is an ideal replacement for legacy MA36800 and MH36800 breakers. Rated 65kAIC at 480V, this current-limiting MCCB includes standard lugs.
Can the MJL36800E10 replace older Square D MA or MH frame breakers?
Yes. This PowerPacT M-frame unit-mount breaker serves as a modern replacement for legacy MA36800 and MH36800 circuit breakers. It features common mounting holes and handle locations to simplify retrofitting into existing switchboards or motor control centers.
Can this breaker be installed in an I-Line panelboard?
No. The MJL36800E10 is a feed-thru unit-mount breaker equipped with mechanical lugs on both the line and load sides. For plug-on installations in I-Line panelboards, an MJA36800 I-Line breaker is required.
How does the adjustable electronic trip unit operate on this breaker?
The integrated ET 1.0 electronic trip unit allows for long-time continuous current adjustments from 300A to 800A. It also includes customizable instantaneous pickup settings to optimize short-circuit coordination in commercial and industrial applications.
What is the recommended lug tightening torque for the conductor terminals?
The standard AL800M23K line and load lugs require a tightening torque of 442.5 lb-in (50 N.m) to securely terminate 3/0 AWG to 500 kcmil conductors.
Are the lugs suitable for both aluminum and copper conductors?
Yes. The factory-installed AL800M23K terminal lugs accept three 3/0 AWG to 500 kcmil conductors per phase and are rated for either aluminum or copper wire.
Is the MJL36800E10 rated for 100 percent continuous duty?
No, it is an 80 percent rated circuit breaker. Under standard National Electrical Code guidelines, continuous loads lasting three hours or more must not exceed 640A, which is 80 percent of the 800A maximum sensor rating.
What internal accessories can be installed in this breaker?
The MJL36800E10 accepts a variety of field-installable internal accessories, including shunt trips, undervoltage releases, auxiliary switches, and alarm switches. These install directly into dedicated compartments behind the front cover.
