FA320601021 - 60 Amp Circuit Breaker

FA320601021 - 60 Amp Circuit Breaker

The FA320601021 is a 60-amp, 3-pole thermal-magnetic molded-case circuit breaker designed for use in compatible I-Line panelboards and applications requiring a 120VAC shunt trip function. When you're maintaining existing electrical distribution equipment, matching the original breaker specifications is important for keeping the system configuration unchanged. This FA Series breaker combines the required amperage, pole arrangement, and mounting application with the added capability of remote tripping through its shunt trip feature. The thermal-magnetic trip mechanism responds to both overloads and short-circuit conditions, helping to protect connected circuits during normal operation.
