FA34070 **Old Style** - 70 Amp Circuit Breaker

FA34070  **Old Style** - 70 Amp Circuit Breaker

The FA34070 Old Style is a 70 Amp, 3-pole thermal magnetic molded case circuit breaker used in compatible I-Line panelboards. When you're servicing an existing electrical distribution system, matching the original breaker specifications is important for keeping the installation consistent. This FA Series breaker is intended for applications where the same amp rating, three-pole configuration, and panel compatibility are needed without changing the existing equipment arrangement. The thermal magnetic trip mechanism responds to both overload conditions and short circuits, helping you protect connected circuits during normal operation.
