FAL36025 - 25 Amp Circuit Breaker

FAL36025 - 25 Amp Circuit Breaker

Replacing your circuit breaker is usually about matching what's already in the equipment, not changing the way the system operates. The FAL36025 is a 25 Amp, 3-pole thermal magnetic circuit breaker rated for 600VAC and built for use in compatible FAL electrical distribution systems. Keeping the original form, fit, and function makes maintenance easier, especially when downtime needs to be kept to a minimum and there's no reason to modify the existing panel.

Inside the breaker, the thermal element responds to overloads that develop over time, while the magnetic trip reacts almost instantly when a short circuit occurs. That's the type of protection facilities have relied on for years in commercial and industrial applications. The unit-mount construction, line and load lug connections, and familiar FAL footprint help simplify replacement work when the existing installation calls for the same catalog number.

Material Compliance and Certifications

The FAL36025 is UL Listed and CSA Certified and carries an HACR rating for qualifying heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration applications. Before replacing an existing breaker, it's always worth confirming the catalog number, amp rating, pole configuration, voltage rating, and mounting arrangement match the equipment already in service. Matching those details helps preserve the original installation without unnecessary changes.

Where It Works Best

The FAL36025 is commonly found in commercial buildings, manufacturing facilities, schools, municipal properties, and other locations that use FAL panelboards or switchboards. It is frequently applied to branch circuits serving HVAC equipment, pumps, compressors, motors, and general three-phase distribution. When the goal is replacing a worn or failed breaker with one that matches the existing installation, keeping the same series and electrical ratings is often the most practical approach.
