F2040 - 40Amp Circuit Breaker

F2040 - 40Amp Circuit Breaker

The F2040 is a 40 Amp, 2-pole Type F molded case circuit breaker used in 480VAC electrical systems that require a 14kA interrupting capacity. If you're replacing an existing breaker, matching the original specifications is the most important step. This model is intended as a form-, fit-, and function-replacement for compatible equipment, allowing you to maintain the existing electrical setup without changing the original design.

Built on an F-Frame with an AB DE-ION configuration, the F2040 is made to last and is commonly found in commercial and industrial power distribution equipment. Its molded-case construction helps protect circuits from overloads and short circuits while meeting the electrical ratings required for compatible installations.
