FAL36060 - 60 Amp Circuit Breaker

FAL36060 - 60 Amp Circuit Breaker

The FAL36060 is a 60 Amp, 3-pole thermal magnetic circuit breaker used in electrical equipment built around the Type FAL frame. For many maintenance and repair jobs, the goal is simple: replace your existing breaker with one that matches the original specifications. This breaker is intended for applications where keeping the same amp rating, mounting style, and electrical configuration matters.

The thermal-magnetic trip unit combines two types of protection in one device. The thermal element handles prolonged overload conditions, while the magnetic trip responds to short-circuit events.
