FA24030BC **Old Style** - 30 Amp Circuit Breaker

FA24030BC **Old Style** - 30 Amp Circuit Breaker

If you're maintaining an existing FA-frame electrical distribution system, the FA24030BC Old Style is designed to match the original installation without changing the panel configuration. This 30 Amp, 2-pole molded case circuit breaker features an I-Line plug-in design with a B-C phase configuration, making it a practical form, fit, and functional replacement for compatible equipment. Its thermal-magnetic trip unit responds to both overloads and short circuits, helping protect connected circuits during everyday operation. Rated for 14kA at 480VAC and 18kA at 240VAC, this breaker is built for 60Hz systems and is suitable for use in environments up to 40°C.
