FA26030AC **Old Style** - 30 Amp Circuit Breaker

FA26030AC **Old Style** - 30 Amp Circuit Breaker

When you need to keep an existing electrical system operating as intended, using the correct replacement breaker matters. The FA26030AC Old Style is a 30-amp, 2-pole thermal-magnetic molded-case circuit breaker built for compatible FA-frame I-Line panelboards. It uses an I-Line plug-in connection with an A-C phase configuration, making it a practical choice when replacing an existing breaker with the same ratings and physical design.

Built for 60Hz applications and a 40°C ambient temperature, the FA26030AC Old Style is built to last and remains a dependable form, fit, and functional replacement for maintaining legacy electrical distribution equipment.
