FA340301021 - 30 Amp Circuit Breaker

FA340301021 - 30 Amp Circuit Breaker

The FA340301021 is a 30-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 an existing electrical system, matching the original breaker specifications is important to keeping the installation unchanged. This FA Series breaker combines the required amp rating, three-pole configuration, and electrical characteristics with the added ability to remotely trip the breaker through a compatible 120VAC control circuit. The thermal-magnetic trip mechanism responds to both overload conditions and short circuits, helping to protect connected circuits during normal operation. The integrated 120VAC shunt trip feature allows the breaker to be opened remotely when required by the application. Built to last, this molded-case circuit breaker provides the proper fit and electrical characteristics for compatible FA Series I-Line panelboard installations in commercial and industrial environments.
