FA26050BC **Old Style** - 50 Amp Circuit Breaker

FA26050BC **Old Style** - 50 Amp Circuit Breaker

If you're replacing an existing FA26050BC Old Style circuit breaker, it's important to match the original specifications. This 50-Amp, 2-pole thermal-magnetic molded-case circuit breaker is designed for use in compatible I-Line electrical distribution systems where the original FA-series configuration must be maintained. Its I-Line plug-in mounting style and B-C phase configuration make it suitable for applications that require the same form, fit, and function as the installed breaker.

The thermal magnetic trip mechanism helps protect electrical circuits by responding to both prolonged overloads and short-circuit conditions.
