FA32050 **Old Style** - 50 Amp Circuit Breaker

FA32050 **Old Style** - 50 Amp Circuit Breaker

The FA32050 Old Style is a 50-amp, 3-pole thermal-magnetic molded-case circuit breaker intended for use in compatible I-Line panelboards. When you're maintaining existing electrical distribution equipment, matching the original breaker specifications is often the most important part of the replacement process. This FA Series breaker is built with the same key characteristics required for compatible installations, including the correct amperage rating, pole configuration, and application style. The thermal-magnetic trip mechanism responds to both overload conditions and short circuits, helping to protect connected circuits during normal operation.
