FAL3601513M - 15 Amp Motor Circuit Protector

FAL3601513M - 15 Amp Motor Circuit Protector

When your motor circuit protector needs to be replaced, the priority is usually simple—find one that matches the original equipment and gets the system back in service without changing the existing design. The FAL3601513M is a 15 Amp, 3-pole motor circuit protector built for use in 600VAC electrical systems and designed for compatible FAL-series applications. It provides instantaneous short-circuit protection for motor branch circuits when used alongside the proper overload protection, making it a practical choice for maintaining existing motor control equipment.

For maintenance teams and electrical contractors, keeping the original form and fit often makes the job easier. This unit fits where a compatible FAL motor circuit protector is already installed, helping preserve the existing panel layout and wiring configuration.
