FA26020AC - 20 Amp Circuit Breaker

FA26020AC - 20 Amp Circuit Breaker

When you need a compatible replacement for an existing FA26020AC circuit breaker, it's essential that the replacement matches the original electrical ratings and physical configuration. The FA26020AC is a 20 Amp, 2-pole FA molded case circuit breaker designed for use in compatible I-Line plug-in distribution systems. Featuring an A-C phase configuration and a thermal-magnetic trip unit, it helps protect electrical circuits from overloads and short circuits while remaining compatible with many existing commercial and industrial electrical installations.

With an interrupting capacity of 25kA at 240VAC and 18kA at 480VAC, the FA26020AC is intended for applications requiring those specific electrical ratings. It is HACR Type rated for use with compatible heating, ventilation, air conditioning, and refrigeration equipment, operates on 60Hz electrical systems, and is rated for use in ambient temperatures up to 40°C. Built with a durable molded case construction, this breaker is designed for long service life when properly installed and maintained.
