FA26020BC **Old Style** - 20 Amp Circuit Breaker

FA26020BC **Old Style** - 20 Amp Circuit Breaker

Finding the correct replacement breaker is about more than matching the amperage. The FA26020BC Old Style is a 20 Amp, 2-pole FA thermal magnetic molded case circuit breaker built for use in compatible I-Line plug-in panelboards. With its B-C phase configuration, FA frame, and thermal-magnetic trip mechanism, it delivers the form, fit, and function required to maintain your existing electrical distribution systems without altering the original equipment layout.

This breaker is rated to interrupt 25kA at 240VAC and 18kA at 480VAC, making it suitable for a wide range of commercial and industrial applications that require these specific ratings. Its HACR Type classification also makes it appropriate for compatible heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration equipment.
