FA24015BC **Old Style** - 15 Amp Circuit Breaker

FA24015BC **Old Style** - 15 Amp Circuit Breaker

When maintaining or repairing an existing electrical distribution system, using the correct replacement component is essential. The FA24015BC Old Style is a 15 Amp, 2-pole molded case circuit breaker designed to provide the proper form, fit, and function for compatible FA-frame applications. Featuring a thermal-magnetic trip unit, this breaker helps protect electrical circuits against overloads and short circuits during normal operation. Its I-Line plug-in design allows for installation in compatible equipment, while the B-C phase configuration ensures proper application where that phase arrangement is required.
